Today I had to ask myself “How bad do I want this?” I think everyone has moments like this in their training or life goals. Sometimes, the outcome we are seeking changes in how valuable that is. Sometimes the amount of work we need to put into achieving that goal was underestimated. Sometimes our confidence in our own abilities gets in the way. Sometimes we need to take a hard look in the mirror and ask, “How bad do I want this?” Today, I still want this bad, and sometimes that is all the motivation I need to get up and workout, to give that last rep before muscle failure. Sometimes, however, we all need that someone out there that is rooting for us. We often will never know who’s watching and cheering. I don’t know who is still reading this blog. In some respects, all I need to know is that someone sometime might read this, and while I am ok sharing struggles on this journey, I don’t want people to see me give up. Part of this journey is for me, part is for my family who has sacrificed to allow me to do something I love, and part is for the students, to set that example for the future leaders they will become. “I want it very much”
