Teddy, had it right!

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."

Teddy Roosevelt

DARE GREATLY

Roosevelt's life story is one we should all know. Although from a wealthy family he had severe health issues as a child and difficulty in breathing. He went out and fell in love with the west because the air quality was better, not as many allergens I guess. He exercised rigorously and built a barrel chest and stronger lungs. Once he was shot giving a speech and finished the speech. He was the author of many books. He lived life to it's fullest.

DIG A LITTLE DEEPER

Sometimes to get ahead we have to dig a little deeper. It takes courage and guts to pursue a dream others might scoff at.

When you feel like quitting, remember Roosevelt's words.
