“When we set our goals, we want to aim high and shoot for the moon. However, it is important to not get too far ahead of ourselves in that process and be unable to live in the moment. As we know, when all is said and done, it is that process that gives us the most pride, and we don’t want our misplaced minds to cause us to lose out on it.” (Excerpt from my upcoming book Everything I Got)
“Comparison, in general, is a dangerous game that we so often play in every facet of our lives: comparing your grade, your job, your salary, your success, and your life to those of the people around you. . . Confidence has nothing to do with others and has everything to do with your own belief in yourself.” (Excerpt from my upcoming book Everything I Got)
“My dad was known for not wanting to discuss much with the media, but especially not wanting to focus on anyone besides his own team. . . In the crowd that day before the Frozen Four, a brave reporter from Hartford spoke up and asked: Can you appreciate the big picture for this state, with two teams [in the Frozen Four]?. . . My dad leaned into the microphone and responded: Not today. And left the room in an awkward silence. Further criticism followed that response, but my dad only had one concern, and it wasn’t the critics or the other team.” (Excerpt from my upcoming book Everything I Got) 📸 photo cred: @suzlundeenphoto
