There are a few things in life we can count on, by embracing them we can become better:
- A list of goals isn’t a strategy….
- Everyone makes a difference; you need to know, and believe, you do…
- Change is constant; might as well take advantage of it….
- If you’re trying, can count on making mistakes; don’t make the same one twice, just keep trying….
- There is always something new to learn and you can learn something from everyone; if you’re willing to do so….
- Opportunity is always knocking; prepare yourself to answer the door…
- There is a difference between knowing you’re valuable and believing you’re irreplaceable; don’t underplay one and over play the other.
And finally,
- Victory laps are for those who’ve never won, champions simply line up for the next challenge….be a champion….
