The unexamined life is not worth living. - Socrates
Experiencing this pain in my muscles and aching and going on and on is my challenge.
The last three or four reps is what makes the muscles grow. This area of pain divides a champion from someone who is not a champion.
That's what most people lack, having the guts to go on and just say they'll go through the pain no matter what happens.
I have no fear of fainting. I do squats until I fall over and pass out. So what? It's not going to kill me. I wake up five minutes later and I'm OK. A lot of other athletes are afraid of this. So they don't pass out. They don't go on. - Arnold Schwarzenegger
All that we are is the result of what we have thought: it is founded on our thoughts, it is made up of our thoughts. If a man speaks or acts from an evil thought, suffering follows him as the wheel follows the foot of the ox that draws the carriage.
All that we are is the result of what we have thought: it is founded on our thoughts, it is made up of our thoughts. If a man speaks or acts from a pure thought, joy follows him as his own shadow that never leaves him. - Buddha
You are what your deep, driving desire is.
As your desire is, so is your will.
As your will is, so is your deed.
As your deed is, so is your destiny. - Brihadaranyaka Upanishad
We'd be fools not to ride this strange torpedo to the end. - Hunter S. Thompson
