Motivation

"If everybody was satisfied with himself there would be no heroes."
- Mark Twain

People considered heroes often have a certain skill that sets them apart from everyone else.
People who have such skills are people who spend their waking hours pushing themselves further, constantly practicing and perfecting this skill. They are the people who don't settle for being average, they are the people who are motivated to be the best.
These are the people who do not have a fixed mindset (ha ha) about themselves; they are never happy with themselves.
They do not believe the fight is over once they can benchpress 110 lbs, they must go beyond.
These are the people who put in the hours to really deserve to be called a hero.
