Consistency; learned during physical training and now applied to marriage and business, is how a friend, Miguel, answered the question.

The Internet is flooded with quotes from great coaches and sports heroes. Some of the more popular are listed below.

“It’s not whether you get knocked down; it’s whether you get up.” ~ Vince Lombardi

“You miss 100 percent of the shots you don’t take.” ~ Wayne Gretzky

"It ain't over till it's over." ~ Yogi Berra

"It's not the size of the man but the size of his heart that matters." Evander Holyfield

"Make sure your worst enemy doesn't live between your own two ears." ~ Laird Hamilton
