All she does is win. At L.A. Windward School, at UCLA, with the WNBA’s @seattlestorm - I’d totally choose @jordin_canada if I were on the playground picking teams. Starting tomorrow, she joins Sue Bird and Co. in pursuit of a WNBA title. dailynews.com/2018/09/06/for…

Spend some time around elite female athletes. Watch their effort, their work, their hunger and you will never think “less than.”

Human beings are social animals and it is love that brings us together, while anger drives us apart. To live more peacefully and joyfully in our day to day lives, we need a warm heart.

Cultivating a close, warm-hearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It helps remove whatever fears or insecurities we may have and gives us the strength to cope with any obstacles we encounter. It is the ultimate source of success in life.
