I talked to a student tonight, who I’m lucky enough to call my friend. He’s going through some very difficult times — tougher than I’ve ever seen up close. Not one time, has he ever used his situation as an excuse. He only talks about why he’ll succeed, when it will happen, and how he’s going to make it happen. He admits losing sleep, but always uses that loss as fuel for his eventual achievements. He’s as tough as they come, and fights with every last punch. I’ll definitely be sharing his entire success story with you in the future.
“You’ll only succeed when you want it as bad as you want to breathe…”

Lose your excuses
