Arian Foster is the Texans’ 6-1, 227-pound starting running back. He’s also a father of one (a daughter, Zeniah Egypt Foster) and a former philosophy major at the University of Tennessee who enjoys writing music and poetry.

Every Week during the 2010 season, I’ll check in with Foster for whatever “Words of Wisdom” he feels like sharing. It might be brief, it might be long-winded, it might be poetry or it might be prose. We’ll just have to wait and see.

All quotes are Foster originals unless otherwise noted.

Weekly Words of Wisdom with Arian Foster – Friday, Oct. 1:

“Challenge status quo. Stand up. Stand out. Be yourself, there is no one like you. Explore yourself, once you find you everyone will take notice. People naturally flock to confidence, because the majority of people lack it therefore they subconsciously yearn for direction. Be the cornerstone of your own, and your loved ones’ future. Balance is found within, and you’ll be lost without.”

Check back for another installment next Friday. Let Arian know what you think in the comments section below or on Twitter @ArianFoster.
