My good friend Reben Gonzales Four Time Olympian  known as the The Lugeman, sent me these rules that he used to become Four Time Olympian
 
“You will never achieve anything great in life until you start believing that something inside of you is bigger than the circumstances you face”
 
“Great people become great by making a decision to pursue their dream in life and by refusing to give up”
 
“The struggle we must all face on the road to our dreams is what makes us great.”
 
“Ordinary people can become extraordinary of they dedicate their lives to the pursuit f their dreams.”
 
“Every success you’ve ever had or will ever have is the product of your courage to act and the courage to endure.”
 
“I didn’t make it because of superior athletic ability. I made it because I refused to quit.”
 
“Because is not about how much talent you have. It’s about what you do with the talent you do have.”
 
“Successful people love the battle, the challenge and the journey. It’s about knowing that you did your best.”
 
“if you will do whatever it takes for however long it takes and refuse to quit, success is only a matter of time.”
