The minute you get away from fundamentals …
Whether it's proper technique,
Work ethic or mental preparation …
The bottom can fall out of your game,
Your schoolwork, your job,
Whatever you're doing.

You don’t win a game, a division,

When weeds come up in your garden,
It does no good to say, 'There are no weeds,
There are no weeds, there are no weeds...'
It doesn't help to pretend they're not there.
It doesn't matter how much you focus on
The beautiful plants that are growing.
The weeds aren't going to disappear until you
Get on your hands and knees and pull them out.
In your own life, you can't just 'focus on the positive,
Focus on the positive, focus on the positive',
And expect your problems to go away.
If there are some weeds, you have to deal with them.
- Nick Ortner

What he does when he's tested.
When a person gets up and says
'I can still do it', he's a champion.

Lead you into
Something greater.

Just because the rains descend,
And the winds blow,
We cannot afford to build on
Shifting sands.

Excellence is an art won
By training and habituation.
We do not act rightly because
We have virtue or excellence,
But rather we have those because
We have acted rightly.
We are what we repeatedly do.
Excellence, then,
Is not an act but a habit.

Memory is a man’s real possession …
In nothing else is he rich,
In nothing else is he poor.
- Alexander Smith

A strange thing is memory, and hope;
One looks backward, and the other forward;
One is of today, the other of tomorrow.
Memory is history recorded in our brain,
Memory is a painter,
It paints pictures of the past and of the day.
- Anna Mary Robertson Moses 

We do not remember days;
We remember moments. 
- Cesare Pavese


Elvis Presley … Memories

Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories, sweetened through the ages just like wine

Quiet thoughts come floating down
And settle softly to the ground
Like golden autumn leaves around my feet
I touched them and they burst apart with sweet memories
Sweet memories

Of holding hands and red bouquets
And twilights trimmed in purple haze
And laughing eyes and simple ways
And quiet nights and gentle days, with you

Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories, sweetened through the ages just like wine
Memories, memories

Of holding hands and red bouquets
And twilight trimmed in purple haze
And laughing eyes and simple ways
And quiet nights and gentle days, with you

Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories, sweetened through the ages just like wine
Memories, memories, sweet memories
Memories
