I'm 19.87 seconds and I do want to meet a dash until I'm 16.
I put myself in a position to be seen and respected.
I want myself the day for the mission to serve God.
I'll be slow to anger and quick to encourage people.
I'll stand firm and want to believe in.
How do a thousand people that are out there?
Three people make it.
If I go for this goal, I already know what they said.
They said I'll fail.
I think I'm a outlier.
I'll stand firm and want to believe in.
I want myself the day for the mission to serve God.
I'll make the Olympic team in 2016.
Do I have a lot of dreams?
I have a lot of dreams, yeah I do.
Sometimes I don't remember.
Sometimes it's most of the time I'm running very slow
and someone's beating me.
I hate those dreams.
I hate them.
I wake up like I got to go now.
All right, so what I'm going to do is I'm going to set my computer up
and I'm going to do a breathing exercise
and then I'm going to have you envision yourself in your mind's eye
feeling strong, feeling confident, feeling very very positive.
Okay.
How does that sound?
Sounds great.
Should I get comfortable?
Yes, you should.
Just focus on your breathing.
I think having that talk with my psychologist really helped.
Your environment is powerful.
It makes you settle.
It makes you rise.
In high school, he was never really there
but he was right around the corner, you know?
When we were doing the therapy session, whatever the words you were saying,
I put myself on a cloud and it was just so much peace out there.
People have these burdens that they don't even realize that they're carrying on their shoulder.
You know, every kid wants to go fishing with a dad
but I didn't see him much.
I remember calling him my sophomore year in college
and I just felt this urge to say, I forgive you.
I forgive you for not being there for me
and let's start over.
I never felt such a relief when I did that.
No one's perfect, man.
No one's perfect but if you're working towards that,
then you are doing good.
You're really doing good.
Your effort is what people see.
Your effort is what make people love you.
They don't care about the gold.
It's the part that everybody don't see
but this is what it takes to get there.
You know, you got to put in the hard work
and you want to make it to the top.
I want to be remembered as someone who tried.
Someone who gave my best effort.
So guys, I just want to let you know
that I won't be at trials
and something just keeps telling me
that there's purpose in my pain.
There's so many people in life that failed.
Oprah Winfrey, Walt Disney, Michael Jordan,
LeBron James, a lot of these people failed
but they didn't give up.
So trust me, you're looking at a person
that will never give up in life
and I'm going to keep moving forward
because I'm going to get the victory.
So much love and I'm out.
Thank you.
