I completely agree with this quote, your mindset is just as important as anything else. If you have a positive attitude, are motivated and believe you can accomplish your goals, you will accomplish those goals. One of my favorite activities is volleyball; I was on the JV team for Lake Shore my Sophomore year. I remember one game we lost the first match, won the second and were losing pretty bad the third match. My teammates began to get frustrated and complain, I told them we had to keep a positive attitude and keep working hard. I said that we can't give up yet and to believe in ourselves. At first they told me that I was wrong and it was too late to win, but eventually they began to change their attitudes and we ended up winning the game. At the end of the game my teammate came up to me and said, "Maddy you were right!" It's crazy how much a positive attitude can change for you. Playing sports has taught me to never get down on myself, to never give up, and always keep my head held high.
