Recap of last 2 yrs

 This is a response to: For the future me -Don't Read till 3/10/2023

"I am creating my future self, I am creating you. 

Hopefully, I have not let us down.

In truth, I just hope you are genuinely happy. I hope you've found yourself and your goals in life. May the universe bless you on your future endeavors." - me 2 yrs ago in 2021

    Yo younger me, look how I made you proud hhahahaha! First off, I am genuinely grateful for all the investments and sacrifices of my past. Our priorities have changed a bit though; I haven't touched a basketball more than 3x in the last year. We do Brazilian jiu jitsu now, and it's much easier on the knees - sort of. Bro... if you could see us now, we passed 170 lb months ago, and we've been eating clean as fk and lifting heavier than ever before. I feel as good and focused as EVER - no more tracking sleep on that bullshit little smart watch, I rise when I am fully restored.

In terms of academic goals, you made it happen, WE"RE HERE. A lot of reading was done until we started school again, and now, it's just reading textbooks. There were a lot of good mentors a long the way too, and finally, I can assure you we NEVER stooped below the bar of perfection on any endeavor.

As for mental and moral well-being, we've come a long way. New friends, old friends, colleagues, teammates... no experience is inherently good or bad, and to live a full life, we must experience as much as we can. I found who I am and I stick with it. I am no longer lost, for I know what I seek from this life. I need to write another one for the future me in 2026 hahaha.

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
