“If you say “can’t” you’re restricting what you can do or ever will do.”

Self-awareness
"I'm doing this for me. If I don't become as successful as you all think I would be or should be and you think it tarnishes my career, then that's your own opinion. I'm doing this because I want to come back and I enjoy being in the pool and I enjoy being in the sport of swimming."
- Michael Phelps
Self-awareness
"In business, words are words, explanations are explanations, promises are promises, but only performance is reality."
- Michael Phelps
Integrity
"Perhaps we all see ourselves as a little less than we are. Unworthy. Untalented. Nothing special. Lacking the heart, mind, resources, charisma, or stature to be of much use to God. You say you’re not perfect? You’re not good enough? Welcome to the club! You may be just the person God is looking for. God doesn’t need you to be exceptional, let alone perfect. He will take your talents and abilities and multiply them—even though they may seem scarce as a few loaves and fishes. If you trust Him and are faithful, He will magnify your words and actions and use them to bless and minister to multitudes!"
Belief in Self
"I am not a product of my circumstances. I am a product of my decisions."

Belief in Self
