Quotes:
“Because people are so busy and focused on their day, they miss the beauty and rarity of the moment.”
“In life, there are so many things around us that are, in fact, better than we think. People are better than we think. Circumstances, our life, kids, job, our own potential, often are much better than we think. ”
“You are better than you think.”
“Over time, it becomes more of a habit to talk than to walk.”
“Most of us have ideas or dreams of what we'd love to do. And we make an assessment and the impossibility of the thing takes over. And soon we place the idea on the shelf hoping that someday we can dust it off, open it up and dream a bit more.”
“To find the best in us, we must risk a bit of ourselves - our pride, our time, our effort. It's the risk that teaches us to value the outcome.”
“It's in the risk of it that we learn to bring out the best in us.”
