Stories like theirs are everywhere.

“I want to do that,” a little boy says, pointing. “I want to be like them.”

“He has potential,” they tell his parents. “He could go far.”

“I should have pushed myself. If only I had worked a little bit harder. "

Do not choose a path simply because it is there. Do what you love, and dedicate yourself to it in body and mind. You can become one of those stories. Stories made of love and tears and passion and men and women who chose excellence above all else.
