[dohnutt]

I know there was a topic on the old board about this, but I couldnt find one on here and i loved that thread soo post your favorite quotes here! They dont have to do with cheerleading or anything but i think all of mine can relate haha

some of mine are..

"Hard work triumphs over natural talent when natural talent refuses to work hard."
"The day you take responsibility for yourself, the day you stop making any excuses, that's the day you start to the top."
"We are what we repeatedly do, Excellence therefore is not an act, but a habit."
"Excellence is the result of caring more than others think is wise, risking more than others think is safe, dreaming more than others think is practical, and expecting more than others think is possible." <3favorite.

"All your life you are told the things you cannot do. All your life they will say you aren't good enough, strong enough, or talented enough; They will say you are the wrong height, or the wrong weight, or the wrong type to play this or achieve this. THEY WILL TELL YOU NO, a thousand times no, until all the no's become meaningless. All your life they will tell you no, quite firmly and very quickly. AND YOU WILL TELL THEM YES." - Nike.

LOVEEE that one

no really a quote but its from Make it or break it and i liked it

"when you look in the mirror, what do you see? do you see a pretty 16 year old girl with lots of options and distracions? or do you see a champion? and when you ask yourself what do you want, do you think i want a boyfriend, some new clothes, a day off! or do you think i want to win? because those are the only to questions! who am i? im a champion and what do i want? i want to win! so who are you?"

may not be word for word, was off the top of my head

"a set back is a set up for a comeback" (i always tell myself this if we've had a rough practice, rough warmup, or 1st day at competition)

"opportunity involves some risk. you can't steal second and keep your foot on first"

this doesn't have to do with cheer or anything, but i really love it..
"you are beautiful just the way you are. regardless of what you do or don't do. past presesnt and future. no matter where you go. even on your not so good days. whatever you choose. with all your unique qualities. simply because you are you"

"someone is looking up to you. don't let that person down"
