“I saw that if you want to do something, get the right equipment, put the time in, you train several times a week, you can start winning some of these things” – “There was a period in my life when training and competing was number one” – “no matter what happens, just keep going, do your best, don’t worry. If I’m seventh I’m gonna try to get sixth, if I’m second I’m gonna try to win, and if I’m winning I’m gonna try to hold that position. I think I’ve had a lot of success by not giving up” – “Anybody that has been successful has had ups and downs” – “People tend to perform at their best when they are happy. If you’re happy, you’re probably going to perform better than if you’re angry, or feeling bad” – “Find something that you’re passionate about, and then do it. The hardest step is the first one” – “I think I had decent DNA, but I think there’s a lot of people out there in my sport that had a lot more natural talent than I did and didn’t get nearly as far.

I think you’ll see that natural ability will take you so far, but the people at the upper level will always have that drive and that motivation” – “The best time to plan a tree was 20 years ago, and the second best time is now”.
