To me the best part is number 10.<br />

"Finally, in SEAL training there is a bell. A brass bell that hangs in the center of the compound for all the students to see.<br />
<br />
All you have to do to quit—is ring the bell. Ring the bell and you no longer have to wake up at 5 o’clock. Ring the bell and you no longer have to do the freezing cold swims.<br />
<br />
Ring the bell and you no longer have to do the runs, the obstacle course, the PT—and you no longer have to endure the hardships of training.<br />
<br />
Just ring the bell.<br />
<br />
<b>#10. If you want to change the world don’t ever, ever ring the bell.</b>"<br />

Oh, the times I've been on the point of giving up! In particular Med school. But a voice always came to my mind, asking <i>then what? </i> So I knew I had to keep going. I regret nothing. No one could regret not giving up. Awesome post, didn't know about it, will be on of my top 3 bookmarks. Thank you.

That is truly inspirational. I have a message that provokes a great deal of hate and anger in people. But my focus is driven by such a force that I cannot ring the bell. It would be easier to just quietly do what I had to to help my child and not to take a stand. I owe it to him to keep going because I do want to change the world. Not so much for me, but for my children. I will not ring the bell.</div>
