Take your victories, whatever they may be, cherish them, use them, but don’t settle for them.
-- Mia Hamm
About the Quote
We don't always win, so when we win we should appreciate those victories. At the same time, we can't let those victories be the only ones we ever have. We need to build on past victories-- and success-- in order to achieve more victories-- and greater success.
