My Favorite Quote



A Black belt is a white belt that never gave up. I live by this quote. This quote is in fact a very important thing to remember. I always hear this in my Taekwondo school in the Black Belt class. We are told this because our rank does not prove that we are the greatest, it just shows commitment. A black belt spends years doing their best. This applies to every day life. This quote is so important to me because I am a quitter. I have given up on so many things from sports to friendships. I had wanted to drop out of taekwondo but my instructor told me that I can do anything if I put my mind to it so I tried. I worked. And I got my black belt because I didn't give up. No one should give up. They should get up when they fall and say 'Yes I Can'. It's not about your skill, it's about your integrity and motivation to keep on going. A black belt is a white belt who never gave up.
       I also want to add that this can relate to people who are struggling in life but keep on going. They are a person struggling to keep their life in order but never give up.
