Look for another mountain

"For it is only when a man goes out into the world with the thought that there are heroisms all round him, and with the desire all alive in his heart to follow any which may come within sight of him, that he breaks away as I did from the life he knows, and ventures forth into the wonderful mystic twilight land where lie the great adventures and the great rewards." - The Lost World
All has been well. Everyday the sun shines brighter and the sky turns bluer. 

When the world puts us in a difficult setting - at first, we will struggle, but then, we adapt. These difficulties break us only to rebuild us even stronger. As time goes by, that difficulty becomes the baseline, for we no longer notice it. We grow comfortable and stop improving. Eventually, another obstacle will appear and the cycle continues. That is growth, that is life.

I am in times of comfort right now. My studies and my dailies have become more efficient, and I find myself with more time. With this spare time, I burn on nothing productive. Yes, it is well earned rest and extra time, but I FEEL STAGNANT - like something is missing. I want to do more, I need to keep improving. 

Is it crazy that I cannot lie down and grow comfortable? Is it a curse or a blessing?




It matters not. CLUB4 AM here we come. Look for the heroisms and challenges in life.

That's happened to me

 I've never wanted something so bad in this life. It is almost as if I am manic. I've lost my mind... "I've lost my mind doing this doing this sht. Like Vincent van Gogh. He dedicated his life to his art and lost his mind in the process. That's happened to me. But f--k it."   -The Notorious      Every second of everyday is dedicated towards this one goal. I train and study every waking second until my mind is mush. Until every fiber in my being is screaming for me to stop. Until the people around me beg me to tone it back- then I keep going. We are more capable than we believe, and now, I finally get a glimpse of it. I've squandered many years with half-assed effort, but no more. The goal is all I think about now. It wakes me up every morning and keeps me up every night. Everything else in life on hold. Let's fucking get it.

Legends of the Fall

Greetings to the future, It has been a while old friend. My hiatus has finally come to an end, for I have found my way again. All is well in the world. I have found the path that must be walked. A reason for the struggle. An end to the road. A why. I have found it once more. I know what I want in this life. This dream now keeps me up at night and has me leaping out of bed before the sunrise. When we wander aimlessly, no amount of motivation can carry us through the storm. A ship with no direction will never reach the port.  I will do everything it takes to get what is mine. I will do great things. I promise you. Remember this day. 1 year to make it happen. WE RE BACK BABY! LETS GET IT "What we do in this life echoes in eternity." -Gladiator II
