I am better than my reputation.

I am better at math than spelling.

I am better able to retract what I did not say than what I did.

I think I'm better behind the camera than I am in front.

Could I be in a better place and happier than I am today? I don't think so.

When I'm 50 I want to be a better surfer than I am now - for me it's a lifelong journey.
