“The length of the course determines the strength of the horse”. Perseverance, the most important thing champions have. I always tell myself it’s not good to be a perfectionist, in our course of life, mistakes are inevitable what’s most important is to learn from them. This would supposedly mean that I am no perfectionist, but I tend to blame myself too often.
“People blame their environment. There is only one person to blame -- and only one -- themselves.” – Robert Caller
“When you blame others, you give up the power to change.” – Dr Robert Anthony
Why am I so useless?
Why am I so slow?
Why am I so weak?
Why am I so powerless?
If only I was braver,
If only I was smarter,
If only I was more talented.
Am I blaming myself too much?
I’m feeling pretty low lately, life has become much healthier I haven’t been playing much computer games lately. I take my time to work out and shoot hoops daily, In the past, I used to detest practicing alone. I used to find it very boring and it would only be fun with Wei Liang around. The 2 of us used to super close doing all sorts of things together. But everyone has their lives to lead, I recall telling one my friends that time won’t change friendship, how true is it? (Time changes people doesn’t it?)
In the past, if I manage to complete my work early I would game, it later on developed to crapping and talking and now it has become nothing at all. A few thoughts has filled my mind lately, to visit the library and borrow a book to read it in a quiet place, this might help me out in writing short stories in the future. Or to shoot hoops in school everyday.
I finally got a taste of what it means to be injured in a ball game, the impacts are kind of great affecting your performance. Despite the injuries I have sustained lately, such as blisters, pulled hamstring and an injured elbow, I have made it a point to complete my daily regime of exercise and shooting hoops. I get a lot of motivation from anime characters. I always remember a phrase in Naruto, Rock Lee wept and told his sensei that he practices so hard that his legs shake during missions. This along with Naruto’s will to get stronger has fueled my motivation (Anime has to be aired more frequently, I need my daily dose of medication). In the above, I mentioned why, why, why, if only, if only, if only. What’s most important is that I didn’t mention “If only I tried harder”. The pain of discipline is much less than the pain of regrets.
