Saying "I might be wrong" is not a mark of ignorance. It reveals the absence of insecurity.

Arrogance is a shield for a fragile ego. Humility is a sign of self-assurance.

It takes confidence to admit uncertainty. The people who are the most sure are usually the most insecure.

It is the simple actions that make a memorable moment last forever.

The most important quality in a mentor, teacher, or coach is not how much they know. It's how much they care.

Caring is more than taking pride in your success. It's feeling joy as you progress.

The people you want in your corner are the ones who celebrate your growth.

‘I only have a minute,
60 seconds in it,
forced upon me,
I did not choose it,
but I know that I must use it,
give account if I abuse it,
suffer if I lose it.
Only a tiny little minute,
but eternity is in it.’
— Rep. Elijah Cummings’ first floor speech is all too resonant today
