I've learned how to stay humble. I don't want to get in over my head because when you do that it takes you off your game.

I wake up at about 9 a.m., and have a few hours of school or time to relax. Then, I have practice at 2:30 p.m. with my team.

I had to face a lot coming through this journey, a lot of sacrifices, difficulties, challenges, and injuries.

Never give up and always keep fighting, because though times may be tough, the sacrifices do pay off, so just keep pushing towards your dream and just love it at the same time and enjoy it.

I've been on a tweeting mission.

For me going down in history being the first black American to win the gold, I think more colored people are going to start coming to the gymnastics world and say 'okay, anything is possible. If Gabby did it, then I can do it too.'

If you push through the hard days you can get through anything.
