@DrKMidway Happy Anniversary my friend!

[Bob Shipley @RobertShipley2]

Instead of getting down, embrace the struggles and hard times. Few want to experience them but they help mold us into the people we need to be. If everything came easy there would be no lessons learned and ultimately no satisfaction of overcoming adversity.

[George W. Bush Presidential Center @TheBushCenter]

Laura & I honor the thousands of lives stolen by terrorists 19 years ago. We remember the shock of evil & the pain of loss. And we remember the courage of Americans in the moments & days following 9/11. As we honor the fallen, may we also recall the strength of our great nation.

[Bob Shipley @RobertShipley2]

In life, we generally get what we are willing to tolerate. Never apologize for having high standards. Those who don’t understand that will mock you - expect it.

[Dr. David Everett @deverett68]

Nothing good comes from having a bad attitude.

[Dr. David Everett @deverett68]

Life is short, break the rules, forgive quickly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably, and never regret anything that made you smile.

Tell your love ones you love them every opportunity you get, never know when it can be your last 🙏🏾

[Dr. David Everett @deverett68]

A good friend is someone you can rely on and trust. They will be there when you need them the most. Good friends are hard to find.

If you want to improve, you need to be able to take feedback (constructive criticism). If you are easily offended, you'll never reach your potential. “If you really care about me don’t tell me what I want to hear. Tell me what I need to hear”.

[Bob Shipley @RobertShipley2]

If you truly want to be the best you can be, you have to make a decision to break free from living a life of mediocrity. We all have two choices each day: performance or excuses. Choose well - it becomes your legacy.

[Dr. David Everett @deverett68]

Take a risk. If the outcome isn't what you expected, at least you can say you tried.

[Dr. David Everett @deverett68]

Be who you want to be, not what others want to see.

[Dr. David Everett @deverett68]

My biggest shortcoming as a leader. “People don't always need advice or a solution. Sometimes all they really need is a hand to hold, an ear to listen, and a heart to understand them.”

[Dr. David Everett @deverett68]

That which does not kill us strengthens us.

If you aren't "good enough" for someone, they aren't good enough for you.

You have no choices about how you lose, but you do have a choice about how you come back and prepare to win again. – Pat Riley

If you cheat yourself in practice, you'll cheat yourself in a game; and if you cheat in a game, you'll cheat yourself for the rest of your life. – Vince Lombardi

[Dr. David Everett @deverett68]

Sometimes you feel like giving up, but then you look at other people who have given up, and the results aren't that good. – Robert Brault

[Dr. David Everett @deverett68]

If you think a thing is impossible, you'll make it impossible. Pessimism blunts the tools you need to succeed. – Bruce Lee

[Dr. David Everett @deverett68]

You've got to be accountable for who you are. It's too easy to blame things on someone else. – Lenny Wilkins
