play a sport “go play a sport, join a team, feel the pressure and clinch victory – there ain’t nothing like it”
confidence “the only way for kids/teens to gain confidence is to see themselves succeeding and achieving in school or sports or with friends”
catch the next train “start looking down the tracks for other trains and get ready to catch the next train if needed”
be happy for the wins “life is tough and we rarely get everything we want – so be happy for the wins (no matter how big or small)”
