Take a look at what I wrote on August 20th 2011. http://jaypersuasionblog.tumblr.com/post/9236397828/my-commitment

I pretty much wrote down my dream of making to the state gymnastics meet. Claiming I’d put all my blood, sweat, and tears into training this year. And I did; hard work pays off. And if you set out for your dreams it WILL COME TRUE!!! Let this be a story of never giving up. You can become anything, do anything, and be anything if you set your mind to it.
