 “It’s not about what you have or what you don’t have. What matters is what you choose to do with what you’ve got.” – Kelley O'Hara It’s the beginning of the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup, a major international event that only happens every four years. The tournament has an estimated worldwide audience of more than one billion viewers, making it one of the biggest sporting events on the planet. This years defending champions are the United States, who defeated the Netherlands 2-0 in the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup Finals. Because of this, particularly in the U.S., women’s soccer and women’s sports in general are getting more popular than ever. The 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup runs Thu, Jul 20, 2023 – Sun, Aug 20, 2023. So, what better time than now to share some of the most inspirational quotes from some of the top women in professional soccer? Let the quotes begin… “If they think your dreams are crazy, show them what crazy dreams can do.” – Julie Ertz “Only you can build your ladder to success. Attitude and effort are everything.” – Alex Morgan “Failure happens all the time. It happens every day in practice. What makes you better is how you react to it.” – Mia Hamm “This is my charge to everybody. Do what you can. Do what you have to do. Step outside of yourself. Be more. Be better. Be bigger than you’ve ever been before.” – Megan Rapinoe “Coaches can give you information, they can give you guidelines, and they can put you in a position. But the only person who can truly make you better is you.” — Brandi Chastain “It’s not about what you have or what you don’t have. What matters is what you choose to do with what you’ve got.” – Kelley O’Hara “Always work hard, never give up, and fight until the end because it’s never really over until the whistle blows.” – Alex Morgan “Do what you love. If you love something, you aren’t going to care about the sacrifices you’re making to do whatever it is.” — Kelley O’Hara “It’s not about ‘having time’. Everyone has the same amount of time. It is about using the time that you have.” – Julie Johnston “We need to have women in more powerful positions that are making decisions, so when that 10-year-old girl is looking up and wondering, ‘What can I do and what do I want to be when I get older?’ She has the opportunity to do and be whatever she wants.” — Abby Wambach “Every champion was once a beginner that didn’t quit.” - Mia Hamm We are in an exciting time of watching women rise-up, inspire change, and empower a new generation of young women. The 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup is just one major event to get to watch so many strong, hard-working, talented women prove to the world that anything is possible. And that goes for you too. So, whatever you’re going through, whatever you’ve struggled with and whatever you dream- don’t give up, don’t give in and be determined to keep on kicking. Because, thankfully, you don't need a World Cup to make you a champion too.
