A Goal.

No I’m not talking about slapping a small black puck in a net, bicycle kicking a ball in a larger net, slamming a rubber ball in a circle rim, or even kicking an oblong ball between two yellow post. I’m talking about something you strive for. Something you live your life to obtain. Something you are willing to pour your blood sweat and tears into.

If you work in corporate america odds are you hear about these “goals” all the time. It is like your carrot. It is held out in front of you … “Come on if you can just do this impossible task we will give you this reward!”

Minions of Zombie Chatter I come to you now with my goal. Perhaps you may agree that it will be your goal as well. I would not think less of you if you did not though. The goal i speak of is a feet that should not be taken on lightly. It is a task of love and passion. This goal i speak of is the Beer Waterfall:

Look at the form! Look at this man as he takes not 1 not 2 not 3  not 4 BUT 5 FULL CUPS of the nectar of the gods and cascades that sweet sweet juice of life into his body! This is my goal! This is what i must achieve. It seems so far fetched almost as if you expect this man to burst into flames as if he just flew too close to the sun but dear god look at him go! I want to be able to do this. 

This IS my goal.

Like with most goals i plan to start small and work my way up. Maybe I’ll start with two beers and slowly work towards this god in the picture above. I mean look at this guy it probably took him half a decade to work up to 3 beers:

Vince Lombardi once said:

“Dictionary is the only place that success comes before work. Hard work is the price we must pay for success. I think you can accomplish anything if you’re willing to pay the price.”

Who am i to argue with the old ball coach. Vince I am willing to pay the price! I have seen the way of the future and my life now has true meaning. The beer waterfall is my Everest. I’ve been training all my adult life for this journey and I did not even know it. Now I just have to take that preparation and direct it towards my goal. 

I don’t anticipate it being an easy task, but we do all need goals. What better time to start then a three day Holiday weekend!
