A life lesson I wish I learned earlier: You are in control. Of everything. It's all on you. Nobody is coming to save you. But you are entirely capable of figuring it out. Of squeezing everything you want out of this life. You are at the wheel. Never let go.
Your entire life will change when you realize that stress and anxiety feed on idleness. When you take action, you starve them of the oxygen they need to survive. The answer is found in the action.
Everything you want in life is on the other side of something that sucks.
That suck might be 100 workouts.
That suck might be 100 hours of focused work.
That suck might be 100 hard conversations.
The best things in life require you to endure upfront pain.
Embrace the suck.

No particular order but these top my time as a Cav
Bron Game 1 2018 finals
Ky 55 vs Portland and 57 vs San Antonio
Don 71 tonight
Bron and Ky 41 a piece in game 5 down 3-2 2016 finals
Obviously my 34 point first quarter against Portland
What am I missing?
A reason why I LOVED team sports:
My success was dependent on your success; & your success was dependent on my success
Therefore-you had to do things you didn’t want to-bc they benefited me. And I had to do things I didn’t want to-bc they benefited you
