There are a million reasons why you can't. Focus on the few reasons why you can.

Once you make the decision that you will not fail, the heart and the body will follow.

As badly as I want a medal, I know there is a lot of luck involved in that. I want to put myself in position to be in the top three, give it my all and hope luck comes my way.

Don't try to rush progress. Remember -- a step forward, no matter how small, is a step in the right direction. Keep believing.

There are a million reasons why you can't. Focus on the few reasons why you can.

Acknowledge all of your small victories. They will eventually add up to something great.

The journey isn't always perfect, but always worth taking.
