Serena Williams: “I love who I am, and I encourage other people to love and embrace who they are. But it definitely wasn’t easy—it took me a while.”  
We are all wonderfully unique, so don’t try to become more like someone else. And don’t listen to what others might say about you.

Love yourself for who you are

Serena Williams: “I think in life you should work on yourself until the day you die.” 
Quite often in life, your age is only a mindset. Don’t place limits on yourself because of how old or young you are.

Age is only a mindset

Serena Williams has had her fair share of defeats and setbacks—there’s no doubt she works incredibly hard to come out on top.
If you want something badly, you can’t escape putting in the work.

Work hard

Serena Williams: “If you can keep playing tennis when somebody is shooting a gun down the street, that’s concentration.”
If you also want to become the best at what you do, developing the right focus is essential.
