There’s
nothing like a conversation with a friend you haven’t talked to in a long while
to motivate you through difficult patches and help refocus you on what really
matters (thanks, Andy!).
And then
I came across this quote from an old boxing trainer that reminds me that what I’m
working on isn’t really all that difficult to begin with….
“To me, a
fight is not a fight until there’s resistance. Until there’s something to
overcome. Otherwise, it’s just an athletic venture. It’s an exhibition. I think
life is like that. A doctor is not a doctor until he opens up this kid, a kid
just like he’s got at home, and arteries are bleeding all over the place – it’s
not in the textbook. And he’s gotta do it. He’s gotta figure it out. Then he’s
a doctor. He’s a surgeon at that level. You’re not in a fight until there’s
pressure. Resistance. Overcoming something.” – Teddy Atlas
