You owe it to yourself to find your own unorthodox way of succeeding, or sometimes, just surviving.

(Natural Talent + Opportunity) Hard Work = Success

You can make goals for family, relationships, anything.

The basis of self-discipline: Don't allow the edges to blur.

I believe that it is better to learn from the diverse people around us than to try in vain to emulate them, better to be a teacher than a role model. As strong as my legs are, it is my mind that has made me a champion.

Don't shoot for something unattainable - completely outside of your nature or opportunity.

A good mentor offers directions and driving tips from the back seat. You still have to drive the car.

It is clearly not the journey for everyone. People succeed in as many ways as there are people. Some can be completely fulfilled with destinations that are much closer to home and more comfortable. But if you long to keep going, then I hope you are able to follow my lead to the places I have gone. To within a whisper of your own personal perfection. To places that are sweeter because you worked so hard to arrive there. To places at the very edge of your dreams.

You learn as much from those who have failed as from those who have succeeded.
