“We’re often so hard on ourselves. But remember, everybody has a chapter they don’t read out loud. Take a moment. Sit back. Marvel at your life; at the mistakes that gave you wisdom, at the suffering that gave you strength. Despite everything, youstill move forward, be proud of this. Continue to endure. Continue to persevere. And remember, no matter how dark it gets, the sun will rise again.”

“When things go wrong, as they sometimes will; When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill; When the funds are low and the debts are high; And you want to smile but you have to sigh. When all is pressing you down a bit- Rest if you must, but don’t you quit; Success is failure turned inside out; The silver tint on the clouds of doubt; And you can never tell how close you are; It may be near when it seems far. So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit – It’s when things go wrong that you must not quit.”

– John Greenleaf Whittier

“Everyone’s gone through ups and downs in golf. When you’re in those low points, there’s times when you wonder like: Am I ever going to be back in that position? Obviously you believe that you can, but there’s those thoughts. Golf is obviously one of the most humbling sports there is and you can never take it for granted.”

– Rickie Fowler

• “All kids need is a little help, a little hope and someone who believes in them.”

“Ultimately, it comes down to you learning you. You becoming your own coach. You being able to recognize the adjustments you need to make. You learning right from wrong. You taking care of your body. You preparing for your next game and you being responsible and accountable for all your actions and choices. It’s on you!”

– Baseball Dudes

“Golf is a compromise between what your ego wants you to do, what experience tells you to do, and what your nerves let you do.”
