Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.
Two things scare me. The first is getting hurt. But that’s not nearly as scary as the second, which is losing.
If you worried about falling off the bike, you’d never get on.
Knowledge is power, community is strength and positive attitude is everything.
My mother told me…if you’re going to get anywhere, you’re going to have to do it yourself, because no one is going to do it for you.
Giving up was never an option
The riskiest thing you can do is get greedy.
Pain is temporary. Quitting lasts forever.
