None of us really pushes hard enough. People always talk about playing over your head when you are up against someone really good. Maybe you don't play over your head at all. Maybe it's just potential you never knew you had.
Success, in my view, is the willingness to strive for something you really want
The failure to be perfect does not mean you are not a success; it is giving your best that helps you to understand the joy of receiving.
