I'm a failure

[Edmond]

nikon,

I'm new here to the boards but I must say that you have accomplished a lot. For you to have been working 2 years on it is a testament to your determination. It doesn't come easy or natural for all of us. For me, it's the running. I was never much of a runner but in order to get ready for the tests, I had to do it.

What I did was go out there and start running. Eventually, I started to learn how to regulate my breathing and strides.

What I'm saying is that your determination and effort will get you there. When you're feeling down, do what I do and think about your future and how bad you want it. For me, it gets me back up.
