Success: We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the
sails.
Risk: You cannot discover
new oceans unless you have the courage to lose sight
of the shore.
Imagination: A mind stretched
by new ideas never regains its original dimensions.
Opportunity: You'll always
miss 100% of the shots you don't take.
Effort: Life does not require
us to be the biggest or the best. It only asks that
we try.
Teamwork: There is no exercise
better for the heart than reaching out and lifting
people up.
Excellence: Some succeed
because they are destined to. Others succeed because
they are determined to. (which are you?)
Attitude: If it is to be,
it is up to me.
Teamwork: Teamwork is the
fuel that allows common people to achieve uncommon
results.
Courage: In the end the
only people who fail are those who do not try.
