NO IMAGINATION
WHY ARE WE ABLE to do the things we do with realitive ease and so many others can barely walk a block? Just last week I saw a mid-30s man truly struggle to make it up a set of stairs...
... something we might skip up.
It's kinda sad.
My pal checked in on me post completing the massive quest of the year.
How'd your big ride go?
Amazing, super rad. Most finished before sunset. A first!
I can't even imagine doing that.
That's your problem, no imagination.
The great Napoleon Hill said, Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve.
Could my nameless friend do
- 120 miles
- 15000' of vert
- in under 12 hours
such a thing?
Of course, I've already seen him get into mountain biking,
get destroyed racing for a few years...
... get serious, become Expert Level State Champ.
Which I guess is the point about imagining the pursuit of impossible...
... it helps to look back on previous feats.
A lot.
