AMBITION

Do more than belong: participate. Do more than care: help. Do more than believe: practice. Do more than be fair: be kind. Do more than forgive: forget. Do more than dream: work. #<Author:0x00007f1bdf96a468>

Sportsmanship for me is when a guy walks off the court and you really can't tell whether he won or lost, when he carries himself with pride either way. #<Author:0x00007f1bdfa358c0>

SPORTSMANSHIP

Hope begins in the dark, the stubborn hope that if you just show up and try to do the right thing, the dawn will come. You wait and watch and work: you don't give up. #<Author:0x00007f1bdfaa8b40>

HOPE

I am fundamentally an optimist. Whether that comes from nature or nurture, I cannot say. Part of being optimistic is keeping one's head pointed toward the sun, one's feet moving forward. There were many dark moments when my faith in humanity was sorely tested, but I would not and could not give myself up to despair. That way lays defeat and death. #<Author:0x00007f1bdfb606c8>

OPTIMISM

Knowing trees, I understand the meaning of patience. Knowing grass, I can appreciate persistence. #<Author:0x00007f1bcc63f008>

PRACTICE

Mindfulness is simply being aware of what is happening right now without wishing it were different; enjoying the pleasant without holding on when it changes (which it will); being with the unpleasant without fearing it will always be this way (which it won’t). #<Author:0x00007f1bcc6dc678>

MINDFULNESS

Don’t be afraid to expand yourself, to step out of your comfort zone. That’s where the joy and the adventure lie. #<Author:0x00007f1bcc705eb0>

SPREAD YOUR WINGS

Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage. #<Author:0x00007f1bcc7570a8>

COURAGE

Hope can be a powerful force. Maybe there's no actual magic in it, but when you know what you hope for most and hold it like a light within you, you can make things happen, almost like magic. #<Author:0x00007f1bcc783478>

HOPE

Comparison is the thief of joy. #<Author:0x00007f1bcca3e1e0>
