Quotable Sunday ~Competing

Welcome to Quotable Sunday! This week I didn’t want my theme to be entirely about winning, or about losing either! So I went with competing!

Here my Angel played in her second soccer game of the season, while they don’t keep score at this age it sure was good to see her enjoying the game!

While it's important to win, it's imperative to compete. ~ Dave Weinbaum

Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength. ~ Arnold Schwarzenegger

I’m a winner. I just didn’t win today. ~ Greg Norman

Champions aren't made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them--a desire, a dream, a vision. They have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill. ~ Muhammad Ali

Anyone who believes that the competitive spirit in America is dead has never been in a supermarket when the cashier opens another checkout line. ~ Ann Landers
