“Your real resume is just a cataloging of all your suffering.”

The most interesting and rewarding parts of our lives are often the ones that have required the most sacrifice and hard work. When we suffer (e.g. during rides/runs), we are forced to confront our weaknesses and limitations.

In the process, we create a more meaningful life.
