During court today I got a nice calm pumped feeling.
Everyone at some point will find themselves deathly afraid of something. I have had a life filled with some adrenaline jacking situations, I have done a lot of crazy shit. I like it.
My brother told me when he started riding bulls,
"The only difference between professional and a nobody is mindset, can you function better or worse under a rush, that is the difference"
This is gospel to me now.
You won't get anywhere spectacular if you don't have something the mediocre people do not have.
My talent has become what my brother always tried to beat in to me, use your fear as a tool. I can do this well, I learned to take emotions and turn them to hatred and use it for focus and drive. I have walked through the valley enough times I can convert fear as well.

This is the difference between standard and exceptional. What tools do you have? What the fuck can you do that no one else can? Are you scared? Good! Use it! Convert it! My brother was born with it, I had to learn it. You can make yourself whatever you choose men.
