Persevere

As long as you are on the bench you have nothing to worry about. It's when you get up

and step out on the field that you will be met with opposition. Do not fear that which opposes you, but instead focus on that which you are trying to obtain. You may get tired, but so will opposition. If what you're after is really what you desire, lace up your shoes, put on your armor, put your head down and go get it.
