A warrior has one true friend. Only one man or woman he or she can rely on. Who is that one? It is yourself. So you feed your body well; you train it; work on it. Where you lack skill, you practice. Where you lack knowledge, you study. But above all you must believe. You must believe in your strength of will, of purpose, of heart and soul. Do not speak badly of yourself, for the warrior that is inside you hears your words and is lessened by them. You are strong and you are brave. There is nobility of spirit within you. Let it grow.
