I agree with her so much! i used to take pride in my future-oriented mindset. it is not a bad thing. but one of my recent life lessons that nyad confirms is the efforts we make day in and day out, for it's the effort we put into each day that determines the outcome of our lives. living life to our fullest is how we live a full life.

I see her best muscle is her brain....

Best advice ever!! Be yourself IN THIS MOMENT. GIVE OF YOURSELF IN THIS MOMENT. There is no past. No apology necessary. Just give in THIS MOMENT.

[@adriennemiller.music.]

Well, Oprah says “WOW!” but doesn’t follow the advice “it’s not about what i do, it’s about who I AM”…. 👀

[@davidsherman1915]

WOW! I really like here. She's very interesting.

[@verdew8181]

That was an old soul in a 10-year-old body.

[@leviathia10]

Very inspiring.

[@miamiry8737]

Some wise words!
