"Athletes who are able to stay completely focused in pursuit of their dreams are the ones that are most likely to become champions."

"A mind filled with negative thoughts makes you feel miserable and inadequate and will lead to failure after failure no matter how hard you try to succeed."

"You have to create your self-belief by going to your core to find the probable reasons for the negativity in you, and then demolish them."

"Invest your energy in the things you can control."

"Back when I was a competitive swimmer, I used to dream of going to the Olympics. But then I changed my mind, once I found out how expensive the tickets are."

"If you decide not to take action, you are going to fail, and even if you do take action, if you can’t keep up your motivation, you will simply end up back where you started."

"Your current apathy is simply your soul telling you that it is confused."

"It is action that creates motivation."

"Success is simply never giving in to failure - either in mind or body."

"These are the people who will encourage you to go after your dreams and will inspire you to succeed. Stick to them like a barnacle to a rock."

"If not you, who?"

"The sprint is like life ... blink and you miss it."

"Every time a champion makes a decision they have a chance to learn something new, regardless of the outcome."

"Share your aspirations only with those who will support you, not those who will respond with doubt or lack of interest."

"Beer has that Olympic medal color,” Rot replied, “but does it have a winning taste? I’d hardly call silver a champion flavor. No, I’ll stick to my red wine."

"For many, lack of achievement is more a consequence of fear of taking a chance and getting uncomfortable."

"See it, feel it, trust it!"

"Compete like you cannot fail."
