“The reasonable man adapts himself to the
world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.” - George Bernard Shaw.
There are those that set
their sights on the readily obtainable.
Then there are those that set
their sights far beyond, who aim for something greater. A path much harder, but far, far, more
rewarding. A path that leads others to
doubt and question – that leads to countless “No’s” and “Not Possible’s.”
But the path is possible. Obtainable. Achievable.
The “Greatness” is inside you,
waiting to be affirmed.
In 1978, “Affirmed” won the Triple
Crown. This achievement was not met
again for 37 years.
Yes, 37 years.
When we aim for the greatest
achievement, when we stretch ourselves, when we step out into the arena, we
become the best version of ourselves. The
wings of Warrior Angels are not made of soft down feathers, but of scorched
steal, embedded with the scars of battle, and honed over years of struggle and
achievement.
