um... I'd like to feel better or humbled after reading this, but to be honest I can't really see this whole badass, stubborn, gritty thing you're going for. It's sort of laughably cheesy when a lot of people (me included) are going to read it, think "hell yeah!" then realise that they're going to sit at their computer for a while, maybe listen to some music and play videogames. Everything just carries on the same as before.
Still, nice of you to post such a thing.
