Student Success Statement

"The best inspiration is not to outdo others, but to outdo ourselves."

-Anonymous

To me this quote is saying you shouldn't look at other before you look at yourself. We should all be ourselves and be unique and not look into what others are doing. We should do what makes us feel comfortable. For example, I would always try hard when i would run, until the day I got injured because I wasn't ready.
