if you rush today, you'll ruin tomorrow
i am a person who likes things done straight away
as fast as possible
as best as possible
all the time
but I'm beginning to realise,
this is bigger then anything i have every targeted.
i haven't made it in the past,
and why?
not because i was not good enough
not because i was not strong enough
not even because i was not courageous enough
but because i was not patient enough
Good things come to those who wait,
if you want fast results
all you'll get is short term results
this life isn't about today, or tomorrow
not even about 3 months from now.
we need to start seeing the world in terms of years
not months or days
seeing the short term
doesn't help the long term
and after all,
in terms of running
isn't what i do in 3 months time more important then what i do today.
or next week.
this is my moment
to define who i am and what really matters
to see past whats right in front of my face and to look into the distance
this is about knowing what i want
becoming who i need to be
and more importantly
believing in my ability
i will become what i know i am
as fast as possible
as best as possible
all the time
but I'm beginning to realise,
this is bigger then anything i have every targeted.

never be satisfied
When you put so much of your life into one thing,
its hard to surrender when it is threatened to be taken away from you.
I've been told to surrender
to let it go
to set free the very dream I've spent the last 3 years of my life working to achieve.
here's the thing that makes life interesting,
specialists may say one thing,
and others may agree
the odds may be stacked against me,
But what the specialists don't know is that
THIS ISNT A MATH TEST
this an a completely different kind of test
one where PASSION has a funny way of trumping LOGIC
they were very clear about not offering me false hope
but tell me
when has there ever been anything
F A L S E
about
H O P E
no one can tell me what i can and can't do
what a can and can't achieve
what my body can or can't endure
the only person who can tell me i can't is ME
&& i don't have to listen.

Start where you are,
with what you have.
Make something of it
&& never be satisfied.
