Confident
Have you ever have a passion that you really like but people around you keep on dragging you down or even rejecting it? well, I’ve been there.
I was lack of confidants and it takes time for me to gain it. I am just your typical nerd and a weeb that won't even interest you if you see me I been bullied all my life because I was simply different. one day after going back from school I was planning to jog around my town I hear a loud thump I was so curious what made that noise as I approached closer I saw a guy who was flipping like big I mean big tire and I was in awe because his body doesn't match his strength. he saw me staring at him and he said: “hey kid come here”. I was really shy I don’t have the confidence, you might experience this like when you go to the gym and you do your heavy exercise and this some random buff guy just repping your weight as it was nothing so you lose confidence in yourself. So I encourage my self to approach him and he said
uncle:” hey kid do you wanna try to flip this tire?”(with a smile on his face)
me:” I don't know..., how heavy is it?”
uncle:” around 551 pounds”(250kg)
me (in my head):”naaah I'm not gonna do this it so heavy I might snap into two”
uncle:” I know you might think that its too heavy n you might snap into two”
me(in my head):” wait for what how does he know what I'm thinking off”
uncle:” don't worry I will teach you how you might never know until you try”
I tried lifting it the first try but I didn’t even move it by one inch. he told me just lifted and started to tell me what should I do when I'm lifting it. I tried the second time adrenaline pumping with a great push and I successfully lift it. with a big smile on my face and even his face, he said “I told you u can do it”. I was filled with joy that for the first time there was someone who helps me didn’t even care what I look like and most of all gave me confidence in my self. long story short my confidence grew overtime and found my passion that is to lift something heavy or you can also call it a Strength Athlete
