My weaknesses are my jumps. The reason is that although I land them in practice, when I actually compete or perform, I should let my body go and stabilize my mind better. Also, I need to work on not letting negative thoughts and emotions get to me...

Quote by Oksana Baiul about emotions, body, reason, need, mind, work

Quote by Ray Bradbury about attitude, day

I convinced everyone to take their clothes off and jump in the pool. Except me. I stood there with my clothes on.

Quote by Carmen Electra about clothes
