Declaration of War

They call you king.

I lack power, strength and ability.

I've been praised as smart and intelligent since I was small, and even now people use that word to describe me. But enough is enough, I'm satisfied that I was born smart, even if I lack many other strengths in return.

I often wondered what I would be, if I didn't have my intelligence in me. I've reached the conclusion that I wouldn't be anything.

I've decided that it's time for me to go back to the basics, to go back to the things within me that helped me reach where I am now.

Effort can be overlooked, and we can become arrogant as to believe that it doesn't really matter. I for one know I am guilty of that charge. I am who I am now because I put in the hours to get to my current standings, working hour after hour relentlessly with the hope that I would improve.

Today, once again, I take the words that should be always kept in one's heart.
"Always be the challenger."- Hajime no Ippo

A challenger is never expecting the best, so they work hard in order to reach the level they wish to be on. To reach that goal they work relentlessly to improve. It's about time I reclaimed my will to be the best and to reinforce my own beliefs with physical and mental effort. Hours of concentration and sweat poured into the success I yearn for.

Once more, I push my arm to the limit, pencil in hand. Once again, I read books upon books forcing information into my head. One step at a time, I will land each foot as I run toward the better future I aimed at.

Tomorrow, will just be another day. And the next day will past just the same. But, starting tomorrow, the gap between us will grow steadily until one day you will wonder how I ended up so far ahead. So grab your own conviction, and follow your own road. Hold onto your tenacity while fighting for your dreams.

"Cuz some things, are just worth fighting for." - Jim Raynor

And what awaits on that horizon will be much better than what was waiting before.

"I fight for a brighter tomorrow." - Jayce

I'm in high gear now, heading to the end.
So I challenge you.
Will you fight for the best, or falter like the rest?
