I PUSHED IT TO THE LIMIT
My opponent grabs my leg
“TWO!!!” Everyone screams
So now he’s up by 2 points
30 seconds on the clock
I shoot back before the buzzer goes off
Tied.
Now heading into double overtime.
Im exhausted, im breathing like I’ve never breathed in my life
I try to form a sentence but only partial words were coming out of my mouth.
Got back in there.
He shoots I sprawl and keep my head up and shove him down.
Another 2 minutes goes by no points.
Now triple overtime.
My Body isn’t coherent. My mind is taking over now.
At a certain point fatigue is overtaking..
Its all willpower
HOW BAD DO YOU FUCKING WANT IT!
So triple over time I take a final shot.
I get the opening needed and I take him down
“TWO!!”
This match showed me that if you TRULY want something…
no matter how hard it gets, you WILL find a way to make it happen.
You HAVE more in you... and we all KNOW it.
You reading this right now
You struggling with losing the extra weight gained after sports
Athletics kept you grounded and once that ended you fell off….
Maybe you even have been through a match like this in wrestling
So can I ask….
Why are you settling?
Why are you letting yourself get complacent?
Do me a favor, pull that fucking beast out of you today
That athlete you once were
And let that shine through your work ethic in the gym
Start playing the level you know your capable of
We both know you can fucking do anything
I want to see that other side of you from now on!!
