Quotes by Greg
“The secret to life is to keep breathing.”

“Mental toughness is learned, not born.”

“The real test comes when the pressure is really on, when the world is against you, when everything has turned upside down. It is here that you come face to face with the limits of your mental strength.”

“My chief insight is that the ‘good’ think they are good enough while the ‘excellent’ always and all ways try to become better at every encounter and challenge.”

“Start loving adversity—that is what makes you a champion! You gotta love it!”
