Talk about motivation quote from the sports arena:
"I told Ron to come here for this, to be able to play on this stage, because he deserves it. It's too bad that sometimes we have times in our lives where we just get remembered for one thing. Ron is a heck of a person and a hell of a basketball player. He's loyal as hell. I told him that he deserves, the work that he put in, what he had to persevere through, he deserves to play basketball at this level, on this stage."

Nobody knows what the future holds. You can't use the past to help you find the answer on how the future may shape up. It is like viewing the future using a rear-view mirror. It is the present that you persevere to get you to the next period in time. If you think you deserves the future that you envision, then it is now that you bring it on. Live with no regrets and livestrong!
