And sometimes you land it I've spent 6 months working on this lift - the Snatch. Most frustrating lift I know. But today I managed to land it - super stoked! It's not perfect, but I did it, and I'll get better. Weight lifting is such a good practice for life in a way - you have dedicate yourself to the process, make mistakes, learn from your failures, and keep chipping away at it until you get it. Success won't come overnight, it can be immensely frustrating, and you'll fall on your face more times than you can count, but if you don't give up, eventually you'll find success. http://youtu.be/sjo4YzcREWs

	Congratulations on your accomplishment! That is quite a lift, for certain. O.O Interesting to note that you tend to update just when I need some words of motivation. Thank you for sharing your journey with us and inspiring so many, myself included. emotion_hug

	Looks incredible. You're right about success, doesn't happen overnight or over the phone. Need to actually do the work. And I'm still kind of negative about the whole don't give up thing in some propectives because it's easier that way. Find success elsewhere xD But yeah, in terms of hard goals and not dreams then yes work at it, and get it girl xD

	Hey, I'd rather try try again than to admit I've executed anything perfectly. It keeps me humble and keeps me aware of the fact that everything has flaws and that flaws should be accepted as a form of life that teaches us to not give up. If we were flawless or perfect, would we stop practicing because there's nothing to perfect? trashes the term "perfect" because it doesn't really exist. At least you finally made it to where you DID land it! And that's awesome! 3nodding
