I'm starting to cry. I'm remembering those years I struggled with my weight, those times when I saw my reflection in a store window and didn't know who that fat person was, years when it was a big accomplishment for me to exercise at two dots on the StairMaster. And now I'm finishing a 26-mile race. Damn! This is better than winning an Emmy!

You want to be in the driver’s seat of your own life because if you are not, life will drive you.

There's a wealth that has nothing to do with dollars, that comes from the perspective and wisdom of paying attention to your life.

You need to dream a bigger dream for yourself. That is the lesson. Hold the highest vision possible for your life and it can come true.

You are the author of your own life...Don't let others define it for you. Real power comes by doing what you are meant to be doing, and doing it well.
