“Winners embrace hard work. They love the discipline of it, the trade-off they’re making to win. Losers, on the other hand, see it as punishment. And that’s the difference.” - Lou Holtz

“Everything in life is a trade-off and you decide whether a trade-off is worth it or not.” 

WHAT ARE YOU WILLING TO SUFFER?

“Men with nothing to lose will stop at nothing to win.” - Antonio G.Martinez

“Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.” - Steve Jobs

“No matter what your background is and what your current circumstances are, you have the capacity to take action. This is one of the golden threads of humanity - we all have the power to act in a way that will improve the quality of our lives.” - Robin Sharma

“Courage is the willingness to act in spite of fear.” - Michael Hyatt

“Courage is the secret sauce that allows you to act despite your fears.” - Haryana Kanath

“Some days are just bad days, that’s all. You have to experience sadness to know happiness. Sometimes it takes sadness to know happiness, noise to appreciate silence and absence to value presence, failure to appreciate success, and I remind myself  that not everyday is going to be a good day, that’s just the way it is.”

“Some days are better. Some days are worse. Look for the blessing instead of the curse. Be positive, stay strong, and get enough rest. You can’t do it all. But you can do your best.”

“Growth is painful. Change is painful. But nothing is as painful as staying stuck somewhere you don’t belong.”

“You must welcome change as the rule, but not as your ruler.” - Denis Wailey

“Failure is not fatal, but failure to change might be.” - John Wooden

“You did not wake up today to be mediocre.” 

“Refuse to be average. Let your heart soar as high as it will.” A.W. Tozer

Stop tolerating average, stop accepting mediocrity. You're not born just to be normal.

“Stay focused on your destination, even if your path may seem stormy today.” - Bill Cox 

“You’re here for a reason. If you’re comparing yourself to someone else, you’re off your own path. Focus on your own path.”

Sometimes what is meant to be doesn’t necessarily what you wanna experience… "Sometimes the best thing you can do is not think, not wonder, not imagine, not obsess. Just breath, and have faith that everything will work out for the best."

When you feel like giving up, remember that you not only do it for you, but also for those who can’t do it for themselves because they’re not lucky enough to have privileges like yourself.

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover” - Mark Twain
