Success breeds success.
Every single day I wake up and commit to myself to becoming a better player.
The team, not the individual, is the ultimate champion.
Every morning, I wake up trying to be the best mom and the best role model for my kids in a healthy diet and active lifestyle.
Follow your heart and make it your decision.
I could just have chips and salsa for dinner every day.
There are always new, grander challenges to confront, and a true winner will embrace each one.
I am happy that the young girls have a lot more choices these days and an opportunity to feel better about themselves.
I learned a long time ago that there is something worse than missing the goal, and that’s not pulling the trigger.
If a team intimidate you physically and you let them, they’ve won.
Learn to differentiate between what is truly important and what can be dealt with at another time.
Soccer isn’t very social. Plus, if you don’t like someone on the other team, you can do something about it.
Take your victories, whatever they may be, cherish them, use them, but don’t settle for them.
People ask me, ‘Would you ever want to play professional golf?’ And I’m like, ‘No. No, no, no, no. Just because I can hit a good shot every now and then doesn’t make me a pro.’
The person that said winning isn’t everything, never won anything.
I played basketball and soccer my freshman year in high school.
I got to experience soccer at the highest level at a young age; I decided I wanted to be part of that for as long as possible.
I don’t like to stop. I’m a big person who looks at where the hubs are because I hate changing planes.
I could sit there and eat pasta all day long and not worry about it when I was younger, and now I really have to focus on making sure I set a good example for my kids.
After each game, I want to be able to say: I gave it all I could, I gave it my best.
