Tomorrow's victory is today's practice.
Every single day you should wake up and commit yourself to becoming a better person.
You have to expect things of yourself before you can do them. - Michael Jordan
Courage is the commitment to begin without any guarantee of success. – Goethe

Wake up with DETERMINATION. Go to bed with SATISFACTION.
Life isn't about finding yourself, it's about creating yourself.
Talent is God given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful.
No person was ever honored for what he received. Honor has been the reward for what he gave. -Calvin Coolidige
