Finish what you start, no matter how painful it may be.

When I was much younger and still competing in gymnastics, I could rarely find inspiration outside of the sport.

I'm showing the younger generation your career doesn't have to be over when you're 16-years-old.

You ask any person in the U.S. and they know who Mary Lou Retton is.

I dont want to repeat my mistakes.

Gymnastics has given me everything in my life. I will continue to stay involved and try to give back to the sport that has given me so much.

Set daily, monthly and long term goals and dreams. Don't ever be afraid to dream too big. Nothing is impossible. If you believe in yourself, you can achieve it.
