Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.
Weak people dont believe the above. Average people dont believe the above.
Dont be average. Dont be weak.
Be great or be nothing![]()

Manu have you read Beyond Brawn? I am working my way through it and it's great. Some fantastic quotes to be found in there as well. I really like this one in particular:
"Never bemoan the discipline that must accompany serious training. Never bemoan the discipline that must be applied to your diet and other components of recovery. To have the opportunity to apply all this discipline is a blessing. Appreciate it, and savor every moment of implementing that discipline. You will not be able to train forever. Eventually you will not be able to apply dedication and determination to anything, let alone your training, diet and recovery. So be sure you make the absolute most of the present!"
A completely different way of looking at it. Don't see working hard to improve yourself (in any way IMO) as a chore, but rather an opportunity. The day will come that you can no longer work on yourself, so take control now.Iron, sometimes it sets my teeth on edge, other times it helps me control the chaos.

“Don’t wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what. Get started now. With each step you take, you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident and more and more successful.” – Mark Victor Hansen
Next time you're exercising and you're wondering if you should go that extra minute; that extra mile; that extra rep; Remember this video:
Dude builds a nationally ranked team using pipes and cogs and his own money to help kids. Amazing video. It's long but watch it all:
“Go back?" he thought. "No good at all! Go sideways? Impossible! Go forward? Only thing to do! On we go!" So up he got, and trotted along with his little sword held in front of him and one hand feeling the wall, and his heart all of a patter and a pitter.”
