“Hope is the most powerful force in the universe.
Hope that, in the very worst of times we could rise above the pain, agony and disappointment.
We each have the ability to carry on and not only to survive but also to inspire others..
Sometimes all it takes is one person to make a difference.
We will all find ourselves neck deep in mud someday.
That is the time to sing loudly, to smile broadly, to lift up those around you and give them hope that tomorrow will be a better day.”

“Our goals in life will give us courage.
Nothing and nobody can stand in your way.
Without it, others will define your path forward.
With it, you can accomplish any goal.
So, have courage to pursue your goals.”

“Life is full of difficult times.
But someone out there always has it worse than you do.
If you fill your days with pity, for the way you have been treated, blaming your circumstances on someone or something else, then life will be long and hard.
But, if you refuse to give up on your dreams, stand tall against the odds—then life will be what you make of it and you can make it great.
Never, ever, ring the bell! Never quit.
It doesn’t sound particularly profound, but life constantly puts you in situations where quitting seems so much easier than continuing on. Where the odds are so stacked against you that giving up seems the rational thing to do.”

“Life is a struggle and the potential for failure is ever present.
But those who live in fear of failure, or hardship, or embarrassment will never achieve their potential.
Without pushing your limits, without daring and taking risks, you will never know what is truly possible in your life.
If you want to change the world, sometimes you have to slide down the obstacle headfirst.”

“Bullies thrive on fear and intimidation.
They are like sharks that sense fear in the water.
They will circle to see if their prey is struggling.
They will probe to see if their victim is weak.
If you don’t find the courage to stand your ground, they will strike.
In life, to achieve your goals, you will have to be men and women of great courage.
That courage is within all of us. Dig deep, and you will find it in abundance
There are a lot of sharks in the world.
If you hope to complete the swim you will have to deal with them.
Don’t back down from the sharks.”
