I watched a story on the news today, it was a story about a man that had physical disabilities, however he still accomplished a marathon in Chicago, even if it took him 16 hours and wasn't done until 1:30 in the morning. When they talked to him, the man was humble, he didn't brag on what he had accomplished, but why he accomplished them. The man was born with his umbilical cord wrapped around his neck for a total of five minutes. The doctors told his family that he would not live longer than 7 days, he would never walk, and never talk. Well beyond all the things stacked against him, he speaks, and he speak a total of 3 different languages, walks marathons, climbs mountains, and is an international motivational speaker. The last thing he was asked, was what kept him going for 38 years, he told them, "I don't do it for myself, I do it for someone else, if you do it for someone else, then it has purpose." It makes sense to me what he said, I think if more people would set goals, not for them self, but for someone else, it would mean more, and would push you to accomplish that goal, no matter how long it took, or how hard it was. So,.. do something for someone else, let it have purpose! Sug |
