that what you're capable of in a world of finitude and constraint and limitation seems to be the only thing with absolutely no bounds.

The human soul undergoes a sort of transformation, if you will, every time we look around at what currently is and decide it will soon be the gateway to something more.

And that's life's best kept secret, the word decide.

The idea that we choose whether to accept things as they are or to change them.

That we have within us the ability to push further than we've ever pushed.

To find what was once only existent in our imaginations.

And this will always be true.

You get what you seek.

What you're willing to endure.

And while some see this trade-off as too much, as a cost far too expensive, others see it as the chance of a lifetime.

The opportunity to give some of you so that you can grow and improve all of you.

See, each footstep

is far more than a point on the earth.

It's a declaration, a commitment to give more than most would give so that you can feel what only a few will feel.

So remember that when things seem trivial, when it's easier to call it a day or turn it around, that the simple act of continuing forward puts you in the minority.

It's positioning you to experience life as it should be lived.

You're here to both cherish the now and cash it in.

Let the value of your courage compound.

Let your resilience remind you just how much control you have and how much is waiting for you.

If only you say yes when it hurts.
