I can only control what I do when I go compete.
I always say my biggest competitor is myself because, whenever I step out there on the mat, I'm competing against myself to prove that I can do this and that I am very well trained, prepared for it.
It was a very long and hard decision. My dad kept telling me, 'You can always go to college, but you can't always go pro.' That made sense to me.
Always work hard and have fun in what you do because I think that's when you're more successful. You have to choose to do it.
We've always had each other's backs in and out of competition. We support each other the most because we're the only ones that know what it's like to go through what we do, and so we can't be more thankful for each other. We're like sisters.
A successful competition for me is always going out there and putting 100 percent into whatever I'm doing. It's not always winning. People, I think, mistake that it's just winning. Sometimes it could be, but for me, it's hitting the best sets I can, gaining confidence, and having a good time and having fun.
The malicious have a dark happiness.
So much in life depends on our attitude. The way we choose to see things and respond to others makes all the difference. To do the best we can and then to choose to be happy about our circumstances, whatever they may be, can bring peace and contentment. We can't direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails. For maximum happiness, peace, and contentment, may we choose a positive attitude.
When you focus on what you have, your ABUNDANCE increases. I started with my breath. Noticing being alive is a good start!
Heaven... I'm in heaven, and my heart beats so that I can hardly speak.
I think, as long as you're secure with yourself and happy with yourself, it really doesn't matter what the world around you thinks.
Only you can take responsibility for your happiness..but you can't do it alone. It's the great paradox of being human.
