When you play it too safe, you're taking the biggest risk of your life. Time is the only wealth we're given.

What you're really supposed to be doing is whatever makes your heart sing.

DO IT RIGHT, DO IT WRONG, BUT DO IT. Squeeze your eyes shut and jump. Because a wonderful thing happens then. Your focus shifts from yourself, your nervousness, and your imagined inadequacies to the task at hand.

Doing what you love isn't a priviledge; it's an obligation.

You can learn new things at any time in your life if you're willing to be a beginner. If you actually learn to like being a beginner, the whole world opens up to you.

Thinking about swimming isn't much like actually getting in the water. Actually getting in the water can take your breath away.

Now is the operative word. Everything you put in your way is just a method of putting off the hour when you could actually be doing your dream.
