I do agree!
Specially these day, even when i am biking uphill in 34 degrees, and i am almost having a heart failure: i don’t think of the fast crazy down hill waiting for me in few minutes, but thinking how i am becoming much stronger, and how i can endure more and bike faster up the hill everyday… I keep telling myself “Pain is weakness leaving my body!”
and this is true at everything else.
