Caitlyn Marie Jenner (born October 28, 1949), formerly known as Bruce Jenner, is an American television personality and retired Olympic gold medal-winning decathlete.
If you're asking your kids to exercise, then you better do it, too. Practice what you preach.
It caused more problems as a young kid, because the simple process of perceiving words on a piece of paper was hard for me. Many people think dyslexic people see things backwards. They don't see things backwards.
Trans people deserve something vital: They deserve your respect. If you want to call me names, make jokes, doubt my intentions, go ahead, because the reality is, I can take it. But for the thousands of kids out there, coming to terms with being true to who they are, they shouldn't have to take it.
To be honest with you, being Bruce isn't easy.
I don't think I've ever been as scared in my life as I was to be extraordinarily honest with my kids.
If you are dyslexic, your eyes work fine, your brain works fine, but there is a little short circuit in the wire that goes between the eye and the brain. Reading is not a fluid process.
Waving the flag at the 1976 Olympics wasn't my idea. It was too much apple pie and ice cream. Not that I don't love my country, but I felt it was my victory up there, I put all the time into it.
There was a French activist and writer, Simone de Beauvoir, who said, 'You are not born woman. You become one'. . . Words I live by.
To me, the definition of focus is knowing exactly where you want to be today, next week, next month, next year, then never deviating from your plan. Once you can see, touch and feel your objective, all you have to do is pull back and put all your strength behind it, and you'll hit your target every time.
When you accept yourself you are free from the need for others to accept you.
If you want to take your mission in life to the next level, if you're stuck and you don't know how to rise, don't look outside yourself. Look inside. Don't let your fears keep you mired in the crowd. Abolish your fears and raise your commitment level to the point of no return, and I guarantee you that the Champion Within will burst forth to propel you toward victory.
Our mission for younger people is to do our best to make exercise cool, hip - the thing to do.
I spent twelve years training for a career that was over in a week. Joe Namath spent one week training for a career that lasted twelve years.
I was growing up in the 50's and 60's. Back then they didn't even know what dyslexia was.
We put so much pressure on kids to excel in school at such a young age.
Bruce lives a lie. She is not a lie. I can't do it anymore.
If you are a kid, reading is really important stuff.
People are either driven to action or complacency, mission or rust. You're either participating in the Game of Life or you're watching it from the grandstands.
A champion plays the game; a spectator observes, criticizes and never really gets to live. A champion knows what he or she wants and goes after it with carefully calculated goals and no-holds-barred action. A spectator feels that his or her life is not their own. They let others dictate their destiny. They become victims of life instead of masters of it.
I learned that the only way you are going to get anywhere in life is to work hard at it. Whether you're a musician, a writer, an athlete or a businessman, there is no getting around it. If you do, you'll win - if you don't, you won't.
