July 4, 2024: Never Give Up
"Remember: every champion was once a contender that refused to give up."
– Rocky Balboa
For all of those future champions out there, I would just like to encourage you to keep clawing and scratching and dragging yourself forward until you reach your goal. The bigger the goal, the higher the mark, the greater the challenge and the struggle to achieve it. In order for a goal to be satisfying once reached, we must have to overcome serious obstacles to achieve it. There are no easy means to great ends. So, whatever your struggle, whatever your aim, whatever your driving desire, the victory goes to those who persevere, stick to it, and refuse to quit. All the others are just also-rans who fell short of their goal, for whatever reason. If you refuse to give up, you will reach your objective. You may not hit your goal when you want to, but there is never a bad time to hit a home run! If you keep your eye on the ball and keep swinging, there is a home run in your future! If you won't be stopped, you can't be stopped!
