Have you used these excuses?

There is nothing I love more than a really good commercial - mainly because of what I do - but it does take a lot to impress me.  There are a lot of reasons that I am partial to this new Nike ad.  Primarily it is because so many of these things have come out of my mouth in the past.  But also because this guy was born with Spina Bifida and didn't let it hold him back - in fact he is an Olympic champion.

I have faced none of the challenges that this guy has - and I have fallen far short of what he has been able to achieve.  Now not everyone has it in them to be an Olympic athlete, but next time I am sitting on the couch feeling sorry for myself, contemplating skipping my workout - I am going to watch this again and get my ass to the gym...because I can.
