“I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed.”

I am competing with what I am capable of.

Nothing of value comes without being earned.

A loss is not a failure until you make an excuse.

If you quit once it becomes a habit. Never quit!

Accept a loss as a learning experience, and never point fingers at your teammates.

If you’re trying to achieve, there will be roadblocks. I’ve had them; everybody has had them.

Everybody has talent, but ability takes hard work.

Don’t be afraid to fail. Be afraid not to try.

People ask me if I could fly, I said, yeah – for a little while.

I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can’t accept not trying.

I knew where I wanted to go, what kind of player I wanted to become and I focused on getting there.

Live the moment for the moment.

Obstacles don’t have to stop you.

There have been times when I have failed. But there have never been times when I thought I would fail.

I’m a firm believer in goal setting. Step by step. I can’t see any other way of accomplishing anything.

You must expect great things of yourself before you can do them.
