Of Almost & Halfway

So at 49,600 burpees in I am being told I am "almost halfway". These are two terms I don't really like.

To me almost means something that wasn't achieved. As the great Star Wars wise man Yoda said "There is no try. There is only do or not do." (Star Wars fans please forgive my paraphrasing).

To me, if "almost" is enough I will never fully achieve my goals. Almost is the enemy of achievement. I have "almost" been a lot of things that never happened. In short, almost means nothing to me. I (and We) need to finish this endeavor. I promise I will do my part and I am counting on everyone reading this to do your part (I'm up to 5 readers now).

Thank you and I am truly humbled that you have taken the time to read this.
