Choosing Not to Speak

It's safe to say life sucks. I mean, life never really goes the way we want it to. If I had what I wanted, I'd be the greatest footballer (soccer for you yankees) to ever live, I would be the greatest writer to have ever seen a pen (I'm slowly working on it) and I'd have a hot girlfriend who holds the world record for holding her breath, while multitasking.

We all have dreams right? And we all want the best of the best, either for our own needs, or for validation by our peers.

So why is it so difficult to attain those dreams?

Is it fate, competition, or is it our bad habit as humans to quit our goals early and become overly comfortable once we've seen a little of the riches our dreams may bring, along our journey?

The greatest artist, athletes and icons are the ones who shape what we consider success, right? And it seems most of them have something in common.

They don't know when to quit!

Michelangelo rarely felt his work was ever finished, Howard Hughes spent years editing, and millions of dollars producing his movie Hell's Angels- he never felt it was to his quality. Even Donald Trump is a voracious consumer of property, all in his quest to be the most prominent land owner in the universe. Unless Richard Branson gets there first.

These men, and those like them, seem to be the most successful people in the world, in the most lasting way. The all want perfection and they do it by incorporating their unquenchable attitudes into every aspect of their life.

So don't blame Tiger for his insatiable desire to fill every hole he sees. He's just trying to be the best. On and off the course

And Gatorade only sponsors the best my friends. So ask yourself, Is it in you?
