    Agree with that article, I do. I know I have been guilty of letting my excuses possess me at times, like right now. I know I need to hit my studies harder, and need to start working out, need to get things done around the house, but I always find an excuse why I can't.

    I just need a good kick in the *** lol.

    I know I'm not saint and I have excuses too. But I know exactly what this guy is talking about. Nearly everyday I come across someone who can't do this or can't do that. It's really pathetic to listen to sometimes.

    If you give yourself the chance, you will amaze yourself 9 times out of 10 and uncover a vast new world that you believed out of reach. 5 years ago I never imagined I would be sitting where I am today. But I gave it the old college try, put in a lot of hard work, and here I sit. Again, by no means perfect and I still have lots to get done. But every day I try to move a little closer and one day I'll be there.

    +1 on the find. I intend to share this with some people.

    Reminds me of this. I found this sometime back, pulled it off youtube and stuck it on my ipod (which I really only listen to when working out). Michael Jordan was a child hero of mine, so this hits home and inspires me.
