One quote reads, “Having the courage to begin is admirable, but it’s finishing which is the most demanding and rewarding. Let’s all make the day count.”
And another says, “Admitting you don’t know something is not a sign of ignorance, but a sign of humility and the only way you really learn.”
In addition to quotes, the team will also post bible verses as well as throwback photos to various moments over Daniels career.
