Quotes

Gates

1. She is now enjoying the responsibility of being a team manager but is just happy to be successful in her childhood passion.
   • “I always loved horses. I convinced my parents to let me start taking lessons at a local barn, and things progressed from there,” she said.
   • “I never knew that I would be competing at this level today. I always thought it would just be a childhood hobby, but I’m so grateful that it still has a place in my life.”
2. Gates graduated from Stanford University in 2018 and took a year out to concentrate on her sporting ambitions, but will soon be returning to her studies.
   • “Med. school will, of course, be a new challenge, but I love staying mentally active in whatever I’m doing,” she added.
   • “I found that when I was at Stanford, I was able to compete, and I’ll just have to play things by ear. But whether I can compete at this level or not, I know that horses will be a huge part of my life”
3. Giving Back
   • She revealed that her father loves the thrill of the event and can also be seen riding in his spare time.
   • “I couldn’t do this without their support, both emotionally and with the horses. They cheer me on at every event,” she added.
   • Much has been made of Bill and Melinda Gates’ charity work — the couple have donated more than $28 billion to different causes — and their philanthropy has rubbed off on their daughter who wants to explore her own projects in future.
   • “They’ve inspired me to be a lifetime learner but also inspired me to think about ways to give back,” she said, admitting she wasn’t sure what her future profession would be.
     “I’m incredibly fortunate to have the resources that I do, so whether that’s in the equestrian world or in other pursuits, just thinking of ways to help others is a message that I will carry with me forever.”
4. Special Relationship
   • As well as relying on her parents for support, Gates can also lean on Egyptian boyfriend Nayel Nassar who competes professionally for the Paris Panthers.
   • Together they tour a host of cities, sharing their love for the equine sport.

Summary

I smile when I see grown men try to discourage others.

As my favorite philosopher says, “All the problems you have, you still want problems though“.

My favorite prof goes by Cole.

Its funny I barely told nobody I started rapping
‘Cause see some niggas was haters
I gotta make a move
If they don’t know your dreams, then they can’t shoot em down
