[QUOTE="YJMD, post: 222283, member: 1929"] I cringe a bit when I hear "want to". It gets thrown around a lot as the reason for failure to achieve goals. "I just didn't want it enough", etc. It's very isolating and forces you to "suck it up" whenever you're having a hard time with something. We can all empathize with making bad decisions repeatedly when we know better, because it's hard. Often people who get stuck this way have a great deal of "want to", perhaps too much. Yet, the thought of actually making that next step and being responsible for your own success and testing whether your dreams really could come true is not easy for anyone. I think we really need Shamire to be responsible for himself; we can have that [I]and[/I] support him in understanding how hard it is and that we value all of the other stuff about him even if he can't get his football career in the shape we imagine it could be.
