i got to admit
when your posts are a foot long
i just dont have the stamina to read them
you have learned to press enter to make spaces
that has saved many migraines
if you have a post thats many many lines
STOP
and start a new post
its easier to read
there are pearls amid your reduntant themes
i wish to catch them but sometimes its too much
i could be the only one that feels this way but i doubt it
your last post on the pocket size thread was GREAT
its too bad on many threads here especially what would you do now threads
that we cant have the same intellectual discussion and not a my balls are bigger than your type discussion
on a different note
i must admit my enthusiasm for posting shots and posting questions that might help those of us that did not make a carreer at pool
to see them end up in bickering insteaqd of teaching makes me reluctant to still be an active participant and instead an occasional poster and constant lurker
In life we do what we think is they way too do it.
And when I post I dont count my words and its not rehirst. I wright what comes into my mind.
If I would wright a book I would do it the same way. I wright what I know belive see and feel.
It is hard too just stop because someting is too long. I stop when I feel that I have said what needs too be said.
I have never seen a righter or a speacker stop in the middle off his book and speach.
THe complete thier story or speech. Some people express themsles real short and brife. And other people make it long and drawn out. Everone is different.
And I go into more details and Why on my posts. And if someone wants to breack it down too two or three different parts. Its Ok with me.
When I start wrighting everything comes natural. and If I stop or shorten something. I bracke my cocentration. And dont complete what I am wrighting about or explaining.
And I feel like some important things are not said or talket about. But if some thing is interseting or you enjoy reading what the person wrote then youre concentation should continue on what the person wrote.
If you think its too long or boaring I would say stop reading and do something different that you want too do. Nobody tells anyone what they should read or howe much.
We all have a choice to read it or not too read it. Or we dont even have to look at it.
And thier are many other thigs too read and do. IF I were giving you a pool lesion and My lession has been more then 6 houers and you were learning a lot.
And you want to learn more. Would you tell me too syop after 3 houers and say we will continue tommarow.
Becaue you are tierd or board. If you are or feel that way. I would tell you I am not the wright person too give you lessions.
You need a teacher that will give you short and briffe lessions. Maybe becuse your attention span is too short.
Or you get board fast. Or you have trained youreslf not too concentrate and stay foucuset on a dubject for a long time.
Whatever it is you need ahorter lessions and a teacher that teaches that way. And thats ok because thats eowe you think.
THat reminds me when I was playing Nick Varner we played 5 days in a row very long sessions. His father asket Nick if you cant win Why do you keep playing.
And Nick told his father I am learning so much I cant quite. So you see If a person is into what they are doing and want more.
Its never too long. Only for a person that has a short attention span.
But no matter who it is if you are concentating and are into what you are doing or reading you can go on for ever.
Because if youre mind is into what you are doing or reading thier is never enough. No matter how long.
I played John And We played for a while we played twice. If we would have played 6 or 10 more houers I think John would have keepte playing.
Because once a person is into a game and is realy playing and concentrate on the game.
The Time is aralavent. And if they are enjoying themselves and playing hard. Nothing could get them too stop playing. Because the love the chalange.
And wild horses couldnt drag them away. And what are they going too do go too thier room. And stop doing what they are enjoying. That will never happen.
And not even they money can get them too stop. Because they want more. And both players no that its not easy too find people like that too play with.
And it comes down too if they are enjoying themselves you can get youre body too play for two or 3 days. Because your mind controles your body.
And even if your body is tierd your mind controls your body. And will tell your body to keep going.
What I am telling you her is something you can learn from. And not too many people no this or do it.
But I learned it it Tafft Presion in CAl. I was walking around the track as soon as the count was over and the doors opened.
I was with this youg guy 25 years old in great shape and I give him and 3 other people a bet that I could do more laps walking then the young guy.
The young guy plyed on the basket ball team and the soocer team and the baseball team.
And he was in tip top shape. Everyone thought that this guy was steeling my money. Because he was way younger and un top shape.
And I wighed around 250 pounds. And We started walking and walking. We took a half houer for lunch because the took the count.
That means that they make sure that the count has too match howe many personers thier are supoose too be.
Wright after lunch we continued walking and he was starting too weeken a little. And we would have bootles off water we would drink while walking.
Then it became time for dinner. And another count. Wright after they count we continued walking.
I seen it in his face he was all mein he was all done. And an houer llater he did a hundred laps. And gave up. And he said you win. I said ok.
I said I am going too keep walking and one off the inmates said the record is 120 laps and I said thanks. And I keepte walking. And I won my bet and I was at 125 laps and my body was realy getting weack. And I told myself.
That I am very week put I told my mind that I am going too walk yell the guards tell everyone too come in for the night and take the evining count.
And I told my mind That my mind can control my body and my body will do whatever my mind tells my body to do. And thats when I learned that I could control my body. With my mind.
Try it and see for yourself. And my mind told my body too keep walking and I was getting stronger and less tiered. And my body reacted too what my mind told it too do.
And I never new there was such a power. But I learned that youre mind can tell your body what too do. No matter how your body feels.
That was one off the strongest things that I learned.
And the next day the young man that I walket with couldnt get out off bed. His feet hurt his body hurt everthing hurt.
When I got up that morning I askt him are you ready too do it again.
He said I cant even get out off bed. And I did 145 laps the day before. And that is a record I dont think will be brocken.
And nobody belived that a fat over weight old man could do that.
But I did it by my mind controling my body and telling my body what too do.
And I felte real good for aeeks what I did. And nobody figued ut out how I did it.
But the lession her to learn and it will show up in youre life in pool and sports and other things.
Remember your mind controles your body and your body will do whatever your mind tells it too do.
I have kepte this too myself ever since I learned ut. And it works. I hope John doesnt read this.
Its ok if Billy reads it because after 3 houers he is done.
