"Pursuit of a Dream"
I would like to sincerely thank everyone that helped me in this journey which has just started. Creating this part was one of the most difficult part for me personally: "ask for help and support". I have been self reliant all my entire life reaching for help was an act in itself of growth for me. Two sentences helped me a lot:
"Acceptance is not submission; it's acknowledgment of the facts of a situation. THEN deciding what you're going to do about it".
-Kathleen Theisen
"The Significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking that it was created".
-Albert Einstein
I came to realize that no man is an island. I came to realize that the sole dedication (to intensive training and competition) cannot be accomplished on my own. In order to take some time off and devote myself to just training and competing I needed help. While reaching for that dream, I have come to understand an essence of the Olympic spirit "the human network and synergy" The idea that "the whole Mankind lives in the same world and seeks for the same dream and ideal" In short, this Olympic will be the "nadir" of self expression for me and a profound manifestation of the core ideals to all mankind.
