I think this quote means that with teamwork you can achieve anything. True teamwork is when everyone is making a commitment and helping with what they have. With individual work, the person doing the work tires after giving all they have with no one to support them. With teamwork, everyone contributes a piece and can keep going. If humans work together, they can persist without tiring. With individual work, you can get far. With teamwork, you can pass the boundary of possible and impossible and nothing can stop you.

I think this quote means that if we took the time and had the courage to sit down and understand something, we wouldn’t be afraid of it. The only time we fear something is when we don’t understand it and don’t take the time to understand it. We are only afraid of the things we don’t understand. Take the time to understand something, and that is one less thing you have to fear. Nothing was ever meant to be feared, only to be understood.

I think this quote means that loyalty is something you have to commit to before getting it as a reward. If you want someone to be loyal, you have to take the first step. When you commit to being loyal, you will make friends and people will show their true character to you. Others will trust you, confide in you, and consider you a friend. Loyalty, however, is hard earned and takes time. Still, what you get out of it is worth it.

I think this quote means that even if something doesn’t go your way, don’t give up. Keep going and don’t let anything stop you, because if you do it will always end up working out. For example, I got cut from a bunch of hockey teams that I tried out for at the beginning of the season and got put on a low-level team that I didn’t like. Instead of giving up, I made sure that I got as much ice time as possible and practiced in my garage every chance I got. When the team I didn’t like and I played in a tournament, I played as hard as I could and made sure the coaches on the other teams noticed me. Soon, I got on a team I liked with good coaching, nice kids, and played hard. I became one of the better players on that team and it all worked out. When something doesn’t go your way, don’t roll over and surrender. Keep going and be persistent, because if you do, it will all end up working out.
