You have to find something that you love
Enough to be able to take risks,
Jump over the hurdles and break through
The brick walls that are always going to be
Placed in front of you.
If you don't have that kind of feeling for
What it is you are doing,
You’ll stop at the first giant hurdle.
- George Lucas

It requires perseverance,
Self-denial, hard work, sacrifice,
Dedication and respect for authority.
- Coach Vince Lombardi

Success comes in a lot of ways,
But it doesn't come with money
And it doesn't come with fame.
It comes from having a meaning in your life,
Doing what you love and being passionate
about what you do.
That's having a life of success.
When you have the ability to do what you love,
Love what you do and have the ability to impact people.
That's having a life of success.
That's what having a life of meaning is.
- Tim Tebow

Heal people's souls.

One ship drives east and another drives west
with the selfsame winds that blow.
’Tis the set of the sails, and not the gales,
That tell us the way they go.
Like the winds of the sea are the ways of fate,
As we voyage along through life …
’Tis the set of a soul that decides its goal,
And not the calm or the strife.
- Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Everything that we do every day,
We want to be a champion.

When you play against good people,
That’s when you focus your concentration.
Your sense of urgency to be disciplined in
Your execution all becomes more critical.

Not quite right against lesser competition,
But when you play against real good people
That’s when it shows up.
- Coach Nick Saban

It’s human nature to survive,
To be average and do what you have
To do to get by. That is normal.

It’s the special people that can stay focused
And keep paying attention to detail,
Working to get better and not being satisfied
With what they have accomplished.
- Coach Nick Saban
