Favorite Volleyball Related Quotes
1.    “My attitude is that if you push me towards a weakness, I will turn that weakness into a strength” -Michael Jordan
2.    “All things are difficult before they are easy”
3.    “Courage is taking those first steps to your dream even if you can’t see the path ahead”
4.    “Somewhere behind the athlete you've become and the hours of practice and the coaches who have pushed you is a little girl who fell in love with the game and never looked back... play for her.” –Mia Hamm

I like number 1 because in volleyball everyone has a skill that they can improve on and if an athlete can take the time and get the reps to improve their weakness it will eventually turn into a strength.

Number 2 I think really relates to volleyball in the sense that it takes thousands of reps to perfect a skill until it become easy. If you want to become great at a certain position you have to work hard every time you are in the gym and get as many reps as possible.

I love number 3 because I can relate to it. My biggest dream is to play D1 college volleyball and I have been working hard on improving my skills and contacting college coaches. Even though I don’t know where I am going yet and I can’t see the path ahead I know that if I keep working extra hard I can get there.

Number 4 is probably my favorite because it makes me realize that when I was younger I had the same dreams as I do now and I still love playing volleyball as much as I did when I was little.
