I need to vent....
BigG Wrote:I'm thinking about going professional in either Boxing or MMA...If that's where you find drive, I say go for it, but don't think there's "nothing to lose." Just go in knowing the potential consequences and don't be blindsided by anything. And if you go for it, go for it all the way. Bukuowski put it best: roll the dice if you?re going to try, go all the way. otherwise, don?t even start. if you?re going to try, go all the way. this could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives, jobs and maybe your mind. go all the way. it could mean not eating for 3 or 4 days. it could mean freezing on a park bench. it could mean jail, it could mean derision, mockery, isolation. isolation is the gift, all the others are a test of your endurance, of how much you really want to do it. and you?ll do it despite rejection and the worst odds and it will be better than anything else you can imagine. if you?re going to try, go all the way. there is no other feeling like that. you will be alone with the gods and the nights will flame with fire. do it, do it, do it. do it. all the way all the way. you will ride life straight to perfect laughter, its the only good fight there is. All heart. That's what most little guys are. But that counts for a lot. In the gym or the ring all you gotta do is get up one more time than the other guy thinks you can. - Gabrielle Calvocoressi http://www.wanderingpugilist.com |
