Our Potential Is Limitless...Christopher Reeve

We can either watch life from the sidelines, or actively participate...Either we let self-doubt and feelings of inadequacy prevent us from realizing our potential, or embrace the fact that when we turn our attention away from ourselves, our potential is limitless.  --Christopher Reeve (1952 - 2004) 

Resilience Is...Valorie Burton
