    “I read an article a few years ago that said when you practice a sport a lot, you literally become a broadband: the nerve pathway in your brain contains a lot more information.  As soon as you stop practicing, the pathway begins shrinking back down.  Reading that changed my life.  I used to wonder, Why am I doing these sets, getting on a stage?  Don’t I know how to do this already?  The answer is no.  You must keep doing it.  The broadband starts to narrow the moment you stop.” ~ Jerry Seinfeld

      “Squandering our gifts brings distress to our lives.  As it turns out, it’s not merely benign or ‘too bad’ if we don’t use the gifts that we’ve been given; we pay for it with our emotional and physical well-being.  When we don’t use our talents to cultivate meaningful work, we struggle.  We feel disconnected and weighted down by feelings of emptiness, frustration, resentment, shame, disappointment, fear, and even grief.” ~ Brené Brown, The Gifts of Imperfection

        “You’ve gotten to where you are right now by doing whatever it is you’re doing, so if you’re less than impressed with your current situation, you clearly need to change things up.” ~ Jen Sincero, You Are a Badass

          Excellence can be attained, if we…

          Care more than others think is wise.
          Risk more than others think is safe.
          Dream more than others think is possible.
          Focus more than others think is reasonable.
          Trust more than others think is practical.

              “I’ve been told that certain species of fish will grow according to the size of their environment. Put them in a tiny aquarium, and they remain small even at adulthood. Release them into a huge natural body of water, and they grow into their intended size. People are similar. If they live in a harsh and limiting environment, they stay small. But put them someplace that encourages growth, and they will expand to reach their potential.” ~ John C. Maxwell, Today Matters

                “The greatest handicap a person has is not realizing his potential.” ~ John C. Maxwell, Today Matters

                    “The secret to success can be found in people’s daily agendas. If they do something intentional to grow every day, they move closer to reaching their potential. If they don’t, their potential slowly slips away over the course of their lifetime.” ~ John C. Maxwell, Leadership Gold

                      “We all have talents that, sometimes, we never quite fulfill. We’re all scared, deep down, but maybe we just need to lay it on the line and explore our abilities and just not be afraid of failing.” ~ Chrissie Wellington

                        “When you become comfortable with uncertainty, infinite possibilities open up in your life.” ~ Eckhart Tolle

                            “Affirm people. Affirm your children. Believe in them, not in what you see but in what you don’t see – their potential.” ~ Stephen Covey, The 8th Habit

                              “What I need is someone who will make me do what I can.” ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

                                "You are more than your thoughts, your body, or your feelings. You are a swirling vortex of limitless potential who is here to shake things up and create something new that the universe has never seen." ~ Dr. Richard Bartlett

                                  “Human potential is the same for all. Your feeling, ‘I am of no value,’ is wrong. Absolutely wrong. You are deceiving yourself. We all have the power of thought – so what are you lacking? If you have willpower, then you can change anything. It is usually said that you are your own master.” ~ Dalai Lama
