Sugar and Spikes 16U: Welcome
To the dedicated player who wants to improve her skills, practice is its own reward; it's not penance for the privilege of playing on Sundays.
Motivation will almost always beat mere talent; those who are unable to motivate themselves must be content with mediocrity.
Every step forward is a step toward achieving something bigger and better.
When you win, nothing hurts.
The 'will to win' is not nearly as important as the will to prepare to win.
Don’t measure yourself by your accomplishments, but rather by what you should have accomplished given your abilities.
The main ingredient of stardom is the rest of your team.
It’s what you learn after you already know everything that matters.
It takes years of hard work to become an overnight success.
Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard.
Winners never ask the price, they just pay it.
The greatest single factor that makes a champion is the desire to be one.
One's desire for success must be greater than the fear of failure.
Do your part and a little bit more and the future will take care of itself.
A winner is someone who recognizes her God-fiven talents, works hard to develop them into useful skills and uses these skills to accomplish her goals.
