I marvel a the extraordinary. Every accomplishment, every great thing we do in our lives starts with a dream. The difference is that some people are content to dream them. Some have to live them. Some are driven to pursue the extraordinary. Sometimes you win. Sometimes you lose. Sometimes you change the game.
