Always Remember...."but sometimes, failure is just motive for success."

This is a quote from one of my speech students, J.W., that she used in a current speech about winning the All-Around Cowgirl at District Rodeo last year. She lost the year before by 1 1/2 points and won the next year by over 20 points. Way to go!

From Bride Wars:

Always remember....Life isn't perfect, it's messy.

Always remember to...Encourage those around you, and they will do the same for you in return.

I'm training to run a half marathon right now. I have a great support group of friends doing the same. Let me tell you, it helps to have them to encourage me for doing well and I like getting to encourage them in return. I know I'm going to be able to do this because I have them to keep me going.
