About Me

1) Meaningful Quote:

“Don’t be afraid of failure. This is the way to succeed.” -LeBron James

I chose this quote because so many people, including myself make mistakes in almost everything they do, but that is how you get better at things. If you never fail, then you will never get better since you will never learn anything new, or learn what to do differently. For example, you can be the best soccer player in the world, but it doesn’t mean you won’t make mistakes, you would still have to practice, because that is what makes you better. The difference between easy and hard is practice.

 

2) Embedded Video:

I chose this video because it shows the importance of effort and motivation you need in your life to reach your goals. It inspires me that if I want to achieve something, I need to try my hardest, and if I fail, I can learn and get better.

 

3) Inspiring Picture:

Canada's Women Win Their Nation's First Olympic Soccer Gold Since 1904

This picture might just seem like a team hugginghttps://www.spotify.com/us/ each other, but it’s actually the Canadian Women’s Olympic soccer team after they won the gold metal in the Olympics. I chose this picture because I saw all of the hard work and effort that they put in to win gold, and I think that hard work and effort is what makes people successful.
