You never really lose until you stop trying • Believe yourself Champions believe in themselves even if no one else does.In order to succeed. we must first believe that we canThey can because they think they can.

When you get into a tight place and it seems like you can’t go on, hold on, for that’s just the place and time that the tide will turn

  8. A mistake is only a mistake if you don’t learn from it • Challenges can be stepping stones or stumbling blocks. It’s just a matter of how you look at them.

  9. Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is nopath and leave a trail The path of no risk is the biggest risk of all Always do your best. What you plant now, you will harvest later Do the little things well now. In time great things will be presentedto you waiting to be done. The beginnings of all things are small In creating, the only hard thing is to begin

  10. Seize the day. • Promise, then perform May the road rise up to meet you;  May the wind always be at your back;  May the sun shine warm upon your face;  May the rain fall soft upon your fields.  And until we meet again may God hold you in the palm of his hand.
