It's normal to be fearful of that. You'll never know what you could've accomplished unless you give it your best though. :)

Trying and failing is much better than not doing shit at all.

Thank you all

Of course it's normal

In my opinion, the best advice I can give about this it try not to mirror your accomplishments to other people. And even if you wouldn't be allowed to join the olympics, would it ruin your life? No, because you can keep trying. And as long as you keep working on yourself, you'll become someone special.

Just don't take 'you can be anything you want' literally. I think you can only be anything you work for. Wanting isn't enough.

I was literally just sitting here thinking about the same thing! I have a job offer that is a huge risk, but the rewards if it turns out right are absolutely huge! I have decided to got for it full on, and if I fail at least I wont have to wonder! I feel like this is the best way to live life!

Basically what i'm saying is, someday i'll see you in the olympics and say, "hey! I talked to that kid on IIN once!!"

@Cheychey we are like two peas in a pod ^^. X

We all have our dreams, but in the end, when they turn to shit, its pretty depressing.....

Not the most optimistic post of the day but probably the most true.

DUDE ARE YOU FLIPPING KIDDING ME SDFUHSIFJSIFH!!?

If you are fit and well trained enough to consider attempting the Olympics, what the fuck...DO IT. I'm assuming you have trainers and dietitians and all the other shit already.

Olympians are Olympians for good reason. They have to force themselves to overcome the mental crutches.

I think you can do it, if you GO HARD.

so do i .my mom puts alot of pressure on me about being a docter but i want to be a singer/songwritter.
