Memorable Quotes

“Discipline matters more than motivation”

“Understand when to push, understand when to be supportive, understand when to stop and when to start”

“It's better to try than fail to try. So if it is you stuck in one position and telling yourself, I can't do it, then you wouldn't do it because you're not going anywhere”
