I'm not afraid to take a step and if I fall, I fall. I pick myself up and move on. If we can all learn one thing in life, it's don't be afraid to take on something that you believe you're capable of achieving.
The game is my wife. It demands loyalty and responsibility, and it gives me back fulfillment and peace.
Just play. Have fun. Enjoy the game.
My best skill was that I was coachable. I was a sponge and aggressive to learn.
You have to expect things of yourself before you can do them.
If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it.
Anything can happen if you are willing to put in the work and remain open to the possibility. Dreams are realized by effort, determination, passion and staying connected to that sense of who you are.
Winners don't just learn the fundamentals, they master them. You have to monitor your fundamentals constantly because the only thing that changes will be your attention to them.
The game has its ups and downs, but you can never lose focus of your individual goals and you can't let yourself be beat because of lack of effort.
It doesn't matter if you fall down, it's whether you get back up.
My attitude is that if you push me towards something that you think is a weakness, then I will turn that perceived weakness into a strength.
Another day, another opportunity to prove everyone who doubts you wrong.
I know fear is an obstacle for some people, but it is an illusion to me . . . Failure always made me try harder next time.
Don't be afraid to fail. Be afraid not to try.
