Highlighted Quotes

“Humans are Good”

What always has given me hope is I genuinely believe humans are good, I just have seen too much. I've lived in too many places. I've met too many people to think otherwise. Does evil exist? Of course it does. And of course there are bad apples, of course, there's such a small percentage, and that small percentage still have redemption and hope. I don't think that the way positive energy works is the positive just turns negative, I think positive begets positive, and the more positive messages we can put out there, the better. As people sit back and they say, “the world is falling apart and everything is terrible.” be careful what you're ingesting and what you're putting into your brain in your body.

“Bigger”

Bigger, stronger, faster does not mean better. You need to be big enough, strong enough fast enough. but as soon as you're in that class of “hey I can compete” then the difference is, do you think calm under pressure, do you freak out, like what happens to you when the lights are on, and you gotta do what you need to do. Do you do your job as Belickic would say.

“The Process”

A lot of people want to do something, and get something in return right away. It seems trite to say, but it's really the process that will guide you.
