Chapter 10 - Fuck yeah. There’s no better feeling than winning - dealing your opponent the deathblow and then standing over his lifeless body as the world around you leaps to their feet, falling all over each other to get a taste of your hero’s jism. The immature man revels in such adulations. The mature man, however, celebrates not. Because he knows that every victory is just a precursor to another fucked up test. — Kenny “Fucking” Powers

Pure fucking inspiration right there.

Excuses are like assholes. Everybody has one, and they all stink.

I ran into a friend of mine at the track once. We decided to have a friendly race…one mile. Starting off, he pulled just ahead of me. I thought I would close the  distance and pass him after a short bit, but could never quite do it. The whole last lap my body was on fire, and I was pushing it as hard as I  could. He crossed the line 10 meters ahead of me. He didn’t even look  winded, just a dead-set look in his eyes. Afterwards, I asked him how he ran that fast, and he told me that it is  all in the motivation you light in your mind…imagining your own world  and blotting out everything else. So I asked, “What do you imagine?” He replied, “What do you?” I told him that to run faster, I like to imagine that I am being chased by a wolf. He smiles and says, “In my mind, I am the one chasing the wolf.” That was the day that I started to understand.
