The passage that I remember reading
was probably the quote stating “Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will”
That quote has become my motto. It’s extremely important to me because I am
someone who has allot of doubt in my abilities. Probably more than I should.
But I now have this quote plastered everywhere. And this has really helped me
become more confident. I am able to give myself the credit that I should and I am
very thankful that I found this quote. This quote didn’t come from a book, it
came from a magazine I read allot. It’s a bike magazine and the name escapes me
at this time. But I think that this quote had played a large role in who I am
today. My successes in the sports I compete in. And even the grades that I earn.
I largely accredit it all to this one little quote. I don’t really know why it
has such a positive impact on my life. But without this quote I wouldn’t have
such a high confidence level, a positive attitude, and free spirit. Though I think
maybe maturity is something lacking from my life, I don’t care, I prefer fun
over boring stuff. Wednesday, September 23, 2015

You've got many years ahead of you for that maturity you think you might be "lacking." : ) Be young while you can! I love that these words have inspired you so and given you the boost you needed to go after the things you want.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree. Doubt is the killer of dreams and relationships and many, many more things. I struggle with this at times and have adopted the philosophy that as long as I seem like I’m confident, I will be- a sort of “Fake it ‘till you make it,” if you will. As for maturity, who needs it? All the best people stay children forever.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great motivational quote, Jordan. I can apply it to speech and debate, so it is pretty multi-purposeful since you can apply it to sports. I struggle with doubting myself a lot, too, and I know how self-deprecating it is. I think it's important to believe in yourself because you are the only constant in your life.
