No one can tell me I can’t or won’t be able to achieve whatever goal I have, no one! There will be set-backs of course but the dream of being the best you can be end when you stop trying to achieve your aspirations! One must have honor when it comes to achieving your goals; honor is about truth and promises always kept! If you say it will be so, it must be so!
As Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." He is right!
If there is anything I have learnt while competing, it is that you can never quit - never! Quitting is the easiest thing one could ever do. That’s why when you set your goal you never stop until you attain it. When you do attain it, set another goal, and don't quit until you reach that one! You can never stop trying to reach your potential – NEVER!
