Play like there is no tomorrow. Live every day with No Regrets. Don’t ever apologize for who you are. Remember you teach people how they are allowed to treat you. Never ever say I Can’t. Be Kind. Speak to yourself how you would speak to others, do not let your self talk stop you from achieving your goals. And do not take any day for granted.
