Oh yeah. I fantasize about her VERY often. WHAT A HOTTIE!!!

Yes. I watch the olympics when I can. And I enjoy doing so. What really gets me is when (after turning it off) I sit back and think to myself that these are LITERALLY the best in the WORLD. The finalist is the ultimate out of more than six BILLIoN people.

And think about how also all (most) of them are amateurs. For most sports, these are people who have fulltime jobs and train on the side. It really motivates me when I'm thinking to myself, "Hmmm. I don't feel like doing pullups today. I mean, what's the point?" Then I think, "What if _______ was thinking the same thing four years ago?". And I realize that the extra pain and suffering now will pay off in time.

Try thinking about that when you feel like "giving up" on something.
