“Every job looks easy when you’re not the one doing it.”
Jeff Immelt

“The mindset to have? When you focus on the past, that's your ego. 'I did [this] in the past. I won [that] in the past.'
When I focus on the future, that's my pride. 'I'm going to dominate.' That's your pride talking.
I try to focus on the moment. In the present. That's humility. That's being humble. That's a skill I'm trying to master.”
Giannis Antetokounmpo

George Washington
“Though, in reviewing the incidents of my administration, I am unconscious of intentional error, I am nevertheless too sensible of my defects not to think it probable that I may have committed many errors. Whatever they may be, I fervently beseech the Almighty to avert or mitigate the evils to which they may tend. I shall also carry with me the hope that my country will never cease to view them with indulgence; and that, after forty five years of my life dedicated to its service with an upright zeal, the faults of incompetent abilities will be consigned to oblivion, as myself must soon be to the mansions of rest.

Relying on its kindness in this as in other things, and actuated by that fervent love towards it, which is so natural to a man who views in it the native soil of himself and his progenitors for several generations, I anticipate with pleasing expectation that retreat in which I promise myself to realize, without alloy, the sweet enjoyment of partaking, in the midst of my fellow-citizens, the benign influence of good laws under a free government, the ever-favorite object of my heart, and the happy reward, as I trust, of our mutual cares, labors, and dangers.”
George Washington, George Washington's Farewell Address

Kobe Bryant
“No matter what happens, the storm eventually ends and when the storm does end, you want to make sure you’re ready.”
Kobe Bryant

Paulo Coelho
“Maybe the journey isn’t so much about becoming anything. Maybe it’s about unbecoming everything that isn’t really you, so you can be who you were meant to be in the first place.”
Paulo Coelho
