Never let a dark chapter make you forget that better days are ahead of you. Your story is far from over.

The gift of imperfection - let go of who you think you're supposed to be and embrace who you are.

Nobody said it’d be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.

Try and do one thing each day that you would really rather not do.

Hard work always pays off - it is not a question of if you will get there, but WHEN you will get there

Failure is not the opposite of success, it is part of the success.

Shoot for the moon and even if you miss you’ll land among the stars/

You're not in competition with anyone but yourself. Outdo your past, not other people.

Failure to prepare = preparing to fail

There is no elevator to success, you have to take the stairs.

Work ethic is important, because, unlike intelligence, athleticism, or charisma, or any natural attribute, it’s a choice.

You can hire a tutor but you can't hire someone to practice for you.

The wise person knows that no answer is also an answer

Don't fear failure, fear being in the same exact same place next year as you are now.

Be strong enough to stand alone, smart enough to know when you need help, and brave enough to ask for it.
