“Nothing matters but your will to succeed; not your color, not your ethnic background, not your education, and not your social status. If you want to change the world, measure a person by the size of their heart.”

“At some point in your life you will fail.
It will be painful. It will be discouraging. It will test your very core.
But, if you persevere, and learn from the failures, it will strengthen you.
No one is immune from making mistakes.
True leaders must learn from their mistakes, use the lessons to motivate themselves, and not be afraid to try again or make the next tough decision.
You can’t avoid The Circus. At some point we all make the list. So, don’t be afraid of it.”

“If you want to change the world, be your very best in the darkest moments.
At some point we will all confront a dark moment in life.
If not the passing of a loved one, then something else that crushes your spirit and leaves you wondering about your future. In that dark moment, reach deep inside yourself and be your very best”

“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.”
