Putting Money In The Bank

I suggest a better lesson to learn is to not join competitions in which the difference between a winner and a loser is measured in ridiculously small numbers.

I get the depositing analogy, but how is he withdrawing anything when he competes? Competing is just training with more incentive. If anything, he's much better/stronger after having performed at a competition than before. After resting for a week or so, of course.

I'll definitely think of the Phelps quote when I am unmotivated to get out of bed and go to work in the morning. You never know, you might just learn something new and that something can possibly change your life for the better.

Stackin bricks.

If this isn't brogrammer wisdom, I don't know what is.
