"The desire to accomplish something great is resolved in
your will to succeed. Succeed and you'll have removed all doubt.
The question remains in whether you doubt your ability to succeed.
Overcome that
and the world might be yours to give & share."
"Be Not Afraid of Growing Slowly, Be Afraid Only of Standing Still"
"Life is not measured by the number
of breaths we take,
but by the moments that take our breath away.
For as we all grow older, we realize,
it is not the things we did in Life which we often regret,
but the things we did not do."
