Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go.

Don't be that guy who walks into the room and everyone instantly groans. Be the guy who people gravitate towards. Be an energy GIVER, not a TAKER.

An edited version of Kevin Durant’s emotional MVP speech. KD gets choked up, he thanks his mom, and he doesn’t forget Russ, even though he wants to tackle him sometimes.

The MVP of the league spoke about the people who were MVP’s to him. Never think it’s too late to acknowledge the people who influenced you and sacrificed for you to chase greatness.

All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible.
