Say you don't win at a tennis match—shake it off and hang out with your friends! Have fun! At the end of every day, I ask myself, 'If today was my last day, would I be happy with how I spent it?' And if my answer is no, I do something to fix that!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>#Death\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Chapter 5: \"Life Savers #WhenLifeThrowsACurveball\"\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I'm also really loyal to the things I commit to.

Say you don't win at a tennis match—shake it off and hang out with your friends! Have fun! At the end of every day, I ask myself, 'If today was my last day, would I be happy with how I spent it?'
