I found this quote about 4 years ago at a time when work was kicking my ass, we had a new baby in the house (our 3rd) and I was chasing a 1000lb squat. I'd basically go to work train during my breaks, come home and be for the most part off-line to my family bc I was shot. I was there with them but not as present as I should have been.  One night after a couple strong islands I came across this quote and it spoke to me pretty loudly, it said stop being a sissy. My family was getting shorted because I was tired from my own personal pursuits. It's easy to get obsessed and beat down working in athletics, so it's important to make an extra effort to not leave your family in the wake. Whether it's everyday life or athletics make sure you take advantage of every opportunity because it's going FAST! Thank you Mr. Rollins.
