“Nothing protects the heart like patience.
Don’t get your hopes up too fast.
Don’t let your fears speak too loud.
Don’t give your doubts too much time.
Not everybody is built to handle the rough times.
Can’t be surprised when you fall off with certain people.
Few people understand what it means to really be there for somebody.
And that’s the roughest part about being on a journey,
You realize the main ones that said they’ll ride,
are the first to fall off.
People make promises when the sun is shining
and make excuses when the storm comes.
That’s why I’m always thankful for the rain…
it washes away the unnecessary.
The reality is, you could be amazing, genuine, and sincere
but still be overlooked. Because honestly, people don’t want something real anymore,
they just want reasons to complain and excuses to avoid. Having a good thing is so hard because meeting a strong person is so rare.
So I’ve learned to respect when people run from me,
I realize my kind of love ain’t for everybody.
I’m at peace with that.”
Rob Hill Sr.

“the harder you work,the harder it is to surrender.”
Vince Lombardi

“Confidence is contagious. So is lack of confidence.”
Vince Lombardi

“Winning isn’t everything; it’s just the ONLY thing.”
Henry Sanders

“in school, the teacher knows the answers but shows students how to do the work to arrive at the answer on their own. In business, especially when you’re working on the cutting edge of technology, you’re not looking for an answer that someone else already knows. The business and its employees must find answers to questions that have not been asked before. But an open, learning environment provides the way to find those elusive answers.”
Jeff Lawson, Ask Your Developer: How to Harness the Power of Software Developers and Win in the 21st Century – A Management Playbook for Tech Industry Leadership and Digital Transformation
