You might have caused most to reflect here and that in a sense could be a good thing in a non philosophical 'School of hard knocks' type way. You might even actually achieve what your telling others they will not. If you do I tip my hat to you. However you want to achieve it far to bad. You probably do not realize it and you actually might even be against it as part of your core belief system. It shows in this post and lights up like a neon light. Thats where you need to focus that will power of yours and focus your energy. The energy that you harness and gain your strength from by writing this very well explained post is actually weakening your will power not strengthening it.

This is where realists make their most costly errors. I want you to think about this because there is an extremely slight chance that you can correct this now. You have not been there yet, if you had you would not of written this post or any post for that matter. Your not here because you just escaped MENSA and your bored. Your here because you have an unusually strong amount of will power and discipline combined with an IQ that is equally impressive. But you leave out the most important part. The rise to the top is what you miss and is what its all about. You have to get there and experience it and 99.99% have to loose it in order to realize the true reality and facts behind it. Its lonely at the top.

I am willing to accept that loneliness and live with it should I ever come that close again and so will you. The rise to the top is where the thrill. The hunt is far better than the kill. Don't forget to enjoy yourself while getting there. Telling people that they will not get there will not be part of your good memories when you get there. However telling people the truth which is that maybe one of the commenters and up voters here has a 0.01% chance to get there. Tell them the truth which is that 0.01% chance could be anyone of us. Most of all remind us that we must not forget to have fun in the process so that we remember it in a positive way. Do not mistake enjoyment and fun to letting our guard down or taking away from our steadfast discipline and willpower. We can never loose our bearing.

I would suggest that everyone including you go to a tooling company and purchase a golf ball sized actual bearing and keep it with you always. Some of us might need a large heavy one if we are struggling. The gifted among us will not need to purchase a bearing because that bearing they create with their mind and they never loose it. The truly blessed ones will actually be able to enjoy their rise to the top. I hope you look me up if you make it there and same goes to everyone reading this. I really hope you can tell me you enjoyed it. Thanks for your reality check and thank you everyone that believes in themselves here.
