It’s not what life throws you, it’s how you fetch the ball.

If it was easy, everybody would do it.
The only thing you get by continually looking back is a sore neck.
(M. Nicole van Dam)
Toughen up, buck up, and get back to work!
There is always hope until you stop trying.
Sometimes it’s hard to keep trying; Sometimes it’s hard to keep believing. That’s when you need to ask yourself: When you’re 100 and look back on this moment, what do you want to see?
(M. Nicole van Dam)
The best way to get anything done is to do.
(M. Nicole van Dam)
If at first you don’t succeed, try try try try try try try try try try try try try try try try again.
Repeat as needed.

It took Edison more than 1800 tries before he found a light bulb design that worked.
Don this mask and become a stranger,
an unknown guest
Mirrored in others’ eyes the question,
Are you villain, hero, observer, or in conquest
Here is your visage for adventure and treasure untold
Embark upon this masquerade journey,
Let the Voyage unfold!
(M. Nicole van Dam)
Creativity is wondrous in all its forms – find your own song to sing, and let your heart smile in harmony when others find theirs.
(M. Nicole van Dam)
Faith in Time
The Universe brings you what you are to get
And though more often than not,
I fret
That it’s not what I want
Not what I wish
Not that which makes my heart soar
With patience
Open-mindedness
Open heart
I see, in time,
That the Universe gave me much more.
(M. Nicole van Dam)
Dare
Don’t let your past own today
Don’t sell today for the morrow
Don’t mortgage your future
Pine not for a past only borrowed
Don’t fear laughing, loving or living
Never forget the joy of sharing, caring and giving
Fear not the sorrow of loss
of a soul tempest tossed
Live fully
Set the you of you free
To strive, to shine
Be all that you dare to be.
(M. Nicole van Dam)
We can’t always choose what life gives us to paint, but we get to choose the colors.
(M. Nicole van Dam)
As the circle of light increases, so does the circumference of darkness around it.
(Albert Einstein)
What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.
(Goethe)
Life is an Adventure – or it is nothing.
(Helen Keller)
