As I've progressed in the sport and life a few other mentionable beliefs have come up.

• Embrace something you believe in and support those causes wholeheartedly

• Align yourself with the best people possible and learn from them

• Never "settle", always be skeptical, use the systems afforded to you and NEVER whine

• Never be so presumptuous that you forget there is always someone able to best you

• When you forget to prioritize your life, you have no life.  Family and friends are first!
