A great story.

But my question is, "is it a zero sum game?" While not subscribing to mediocrity, there are always many life situations where good enough is good enough. Fact is, no matter how good one may be, "the beautiful ones are not yet born" (Ayi Kwei Armah).

I like the inspiration to "outwork" myself to be the best I can be, but isn't life too short for the Usain Bolts of this world to keep trying to outbolt their own Usain Bolts?
