Only as much as I dream, can I be.Its a quote I have tattooed on my left rib to remind me that fulfilling your dreams is a mental battle. It takes a lot to become a strong diver. You do all your physical preparations in training, but at the end of the day its about whos going to be the toughest mentally.A lot of the time I train really well, but when it comes down to it at competitions, sometimes I let my doubt and my mind get the better of me.This is why my family is so important to me. The amount of support they give me just to keep me motivated -- especially during a time when youre a little bit down -- keeps me going.Theyre always super supportive; when Im injured or didnt train too well and come home frustrated and upset, sometimes just talking to my mum about my struggles inspires me to go back the next day to work hard and keep pushing at it. Its really helpful, even if I know Im in a rough patch or have a long way to go to get to where I need to be.My younger siblings, in particular, are really big inspirations for me.My younger brother, Joshua, and sister, Maddi, are weightlifters, and its an awesome thing to see them achieve their goals and have so much success in their sport.Maddi and Josh represented Australia at the world junior championships in Georgia earlier this year, and recently Josh became the NSW Junior and Open Champion.Every day they come home and I see they have all these challenges that I can relate to, but they always push through.I often feel like I have to be the role model as the older sibling, but as I see my younger siblings pushing through obstacles and achieving their goals, it gives you the kick up the bum to get you motivated and get you thinking that if they can do it, then why cant I?It just gives you that extra motivation.My cousin, James Stannard, is an Australian rugby sevens player, and despite competing in a completely different sport, he inspires and motivates me through the battles that he went through just to help the Australian side qualify for the Olympics.Hell be representing the Australia sevens side at the Olympics, and while our sports are so different, we talk about the few similarities between the two -- mainly the pressure of performing in a high-intensity sport.Its interesting just to get an idea how difficult performing is for them as well.There are moments in diving when you get injured or miss a competition, so you go through the process of recovering and rebuilding to get ready for the next competition. That seems similar to what they go through in rugby.When you compete in any high-performance sport there are similarities, so its nice being able to compare challenges and having someone to discuss them with.Having someone to share the Olympic experience with is really great; James and I had the Commonwealth Games that weve been to together, but were beyond excited to be going to Rio together.Its not just my family who inspire me, though, but also my coach, Chava Sobrino.Sometimes our training environment isnt very busy, and you dont always have a lot of divers training at the same time; you usually train before the younger divers to avoid cramping the boards.It can get really quiet, and its hard to stay motivated when theres only a few people training around you. But my coach is really good at keeping us motivated and keeping the environment fun and a bit funny. Its incredible having him push me forward every day to help me reach my dreams.?But my biggest diving inspiration would be Chinese diver Guo Jingjing; shes amazing.When I first started competing shed already won four Olympic medals. She ended her career when I was starting, so I only got to see her compete a few times. She won almost every competition she entered -- she was amazing to watch and was such a good athlete.I had the chance to meet her. Although she didnt speak much English, it was still an amazing and memorable experience to meet my idol and inspiration.Long before I met Guo Jingjing, I was working alongside some of Australian divings biggest names, such as Chantelle Newberry and Matthew Mitcham, and it really opened my eyes to their work ethic and what is needed to get on top.It was really helpful seeing people at that level, and I was able to say to myself, Thats what I want, thats where I want to be. So I based my training and my attitude on the people I saw, where they were and where I wanted to get to. I did everything I could to make those Australian teams.

Organisers of the glitzy new Brisbane Global Tens are hopeful it will give Super Rugby the high-profile summer springboard it has long needed.Around 300 of world rugbys biggest names will descend upon Suncorp Stadium in February next year for the two-day, 10-a-side carnival.Fourteen clubs from around the world will be involved - the 10 Australian and New Zealand Super Rugby franchises, plus South Africas Blue Bulls, Japans Panasonic Wild Knights, the Samoan national team and French glamour club Toulon.All sides will be contractually obligated to bring their biggest names.It makes a statement, it says bang - rugbys back this year, get involved, former Wallabies captain Nathan Sharpe said.The Tens competition is the brainchild of New Zealand promoters Duco Events, who secured Queensland government funding and support for the venture.Duco are also organisers of the Auckland Nines rugby league tournament.The format is being talked up as the perfect hybrid between the lively rugby sevens and the more pure elements of the 15-a-side game.The set pieces will be genuine contests and with only ten players on the field there is a lot more space to attack, said ex-Wallabies and current Panasonic boss Robbie Deans, who will have Berrick Barnes among his touring party.Its a lot closer to the 15s than the sevens so all the front rowers are really biting at it, said Chiefs hooker Hikawera Elliot.With Super Rugby scheduled to begin a fortnight later, teams are expected to use the whole week as part of their pre-season preparations.Practice matches, training sessions and fan days all on the cards.
