I love inspiring people, and if I can make a difference in one person's life, then that's success for me!
To believe in yourself and to follow your dreams, to have goals in life and a drive to succeed, and to surround yourself with the things and the people that make you happy. This is success!
We can teach from our experience, but we cannot teach experience.
I run because it's my passion, and not just a sport. Every time I walk out the door, I know why I'm going where I'm going and I'm already focused on that special place where I find my peace and solitude. Running, to me, is more than just a physical exercise... it's a consistent reward for victory!
Too many people go through life waiting for things to happen instead of making them happen!
It's a small world, but we all run in big circles.
When you love people and have the desire to make a profound, positive impact upon the world, then will you have accomplished the meaning to live.
For the believer, nothing is impossible. We put limitations on ourselves.
I do believe that when we face challenges in life that are far beyond our own power, it's an opportunity to build on our faith, inner strength, and courage. I've learned that how we face challenges plays a big role in the outcome of them.
I certainly don't regret my experiences because without them, I couldn't imagine who or where I would be today. Life is an amazing gift to those who have overcome great obstacles, and attitude is everything!
A change in attitude can change your life!.
You can gain more friends by being yourself than you can by putting up a front. You can gain more friends by building people up than you can by tearing them down. And you can gain more friends by taking a few minutes from each day to do something kind for someone, whether it be a friend or a complete stranger. What a difference one person can make!
Everywhere you go, take a smile with you.
If you want success, then don't rely on other people to do what YOU can do!
The world is not interested in what we do for a living. What they are interested in is what we have to offer freely - hope, strength, love and the power to make a difference!
Inspiration is the gift of those who have experienced life at its most defined moments.
What a difference one person can make!
I have learned that some of the nicest people you'll ever meet are those who have suffered a traumatic event or loss. I admire them for their strength, but most especially for their life gratitude - a gift often taken for granted by the average person in society.
Jealousy is the result of one's lack of self-confidence, self-worth, and self-acceptance.
A true friend will tell you the truth to your face - not behind your back.
A true friend sees the good in everything, and brings out the best in the worst of things.
Running has never failed to give me great end results, and that's why I keep coming back for more!
Seek the best in everyone that you meet. Seek the worst when dealing with yourself.
I believe in the runner's high, and I believe that those who are passionate about running are the ones who experience it to the fullest degree possible. To me, the runner's high is a sensational reaction to a great run! It's an exhilarating feeling of satisfaction and achievement. It's like being on top of the world, and truthfully... there's nothing else quite like it!
I don't think I ever knew just how great it can feel to push your body past its limits, and running is a great way to do it. In fact, the harder I train, the more awesome the after-effects!
