If you ever give into weakness and start thinking this person, or group or race or whatever is holding me down.

Go to the gym.

Lift some heavy shit.

Run some miles.

And realize the only thing holding you back is your own inner weakness.

True strength isn’t just physical—it’s the ability to master your own mind. The greatest chains are the ones we place on ourselves, and the hardest battles are fought within. Discipline and resilience break barriers that excuses never will.

But wisdom is knowing that while we shape our own destiny, the world does place obstacles in our path. The challenge isn’t to deny them—it’s to rise above them.
