Training With Graig White Thursday, December 6, 2001 By Aileen Rosario To start off, I never thought I could do some of the things that I am doing now. Graig has made me believe that if there is something you want do or be, you have to be able to put your all into it. Make no excuses. Just go out there and give it all you got. Once you reached your goal, you definitely have something proud of. And that's finding you. Knowing that you reached this goal all by yourself. With hard work and with plenty of support, then you are ready for whatever comes your way. |
