Being successful doesn’t necessarily make you great. What makes you great is when you reach back and help somebody else become great.

What you receive is directly connected to what you believe

You can take pride in yourself without comparing yourself to anybody else. If you run your race and be the best that you can be, then you can feel good about yourself.

Sometimes what we think is a disappointment, is really God getting us in position to go to a new level.

You must make a decision that you are going to move on. It wont happen automatically. You will have to rise up and say, ‘I don’t care how hard this is, I don’t care how disappointed I am, I’m not going to let this get the best of me. I’m moving on with my life.

[ Billy Graham ] is a hero to us all. His life of integrity. Somebody that can stick with it for that long and just stick with his message. What I love about Dr. Graham is he stayed on course. He didn't get sidetracked.

You cannot expect victory and plan for defeat.
