Who are you? This is more than a question, it is a statement. The person you want to be is where you see yourself, ask yourself this question: where do you see yourself? Above that what have you done to get to where you see yourself?
A man might be poor and wish to be rich, similarly a rich man might wish to be poor. Where you are is your current state, where you want to be is your desired destination.

Usually, people remain the way they are because they do not find the right dots (hard work and perseverance) to connect their point A to their point B.
Let's bring this down here, so many beginnings were as red fish aspiring to be whales, but it takes more than a wish to get there.

Don't be deceived, the person you are reflects the imperfections you want to eradicate in the person you want to be. So many men started out as men of nothing and became men of something by connecting the dots.
Do you want to push forward? Stop holding yourself from moving forward. The only person that can stop you from being the person you want to be is you.

I never for once believed I was ordinary, I saw myself doing extraordinary things and I didn't stop there, I pushed myself harder each day to do them.
Sometimes it might seem like the bad guys win at the end of the day, remember that they only appear to win, they never really win.

The reason why failure to become the people we wanna be seems possible is because we stop trying and when we stop trying, we stop achieving those goals.
Who do you want to become? A person who makes a positive impact, a person who makes a negative impact or a person who makes no impact at all?

A man might not necessarily be judged by his terrible beginning, but he will certainly be judged by a terrible end

Can you say you can do it or like the popular Obama campaign slogan "Yes I can" say it to yourself and say it again. When you think you can't do it, think again, you can do it, you can become that person.
When the mission seems impossible to you, that's when it is actually possible for you.

A popular saying comes to mind when talking on something like this "no glory without a cross." and the truth is that there is really no glory without it.
To get the gold, you must break a sweat, don't assume that you are going anywhere if you don't make effort, the best athlete becomes even better with constant practice.

I remember when I newly started taekwondo, I couldn't deliver the perfect axe kick because I was conscious that I might fall and I didn't want to embarrass myself in public, my instructor had to explain to me that it was alright to fall as a newbie and once I got the technique right, I wouldn't fall again.
When he did that, I had to convince myself that I was going to get it and I eventually did.

Life is not perfect, but ask yourselves, who do you want to be? Defeat your current self and embrace the task involved in becoming the person you want to be.
