There were times where I wanted to quit and go back down, but we helped each other reach the top. It was a group effort. Without one another, are chances of summiting would've been lower or we wouldn't have got up as fast. ]]> 2016-09-19 03:23:09 UTC https://padlet.com/emman_akot/rvefqkaoi47e/wish/124618733 emman_akot https://padlet.com/emman_akot/rvefqkaoi47e/wish/124619188 When I had to walk uphill during the hike, I questioned if I could continue walking. My calves were burning and I really wanted to go down. I questioned if it was worth it. I didn't quit because of my teammates pushing me and I was eager to look at the beautiful view. ]]> 2016-09-19 03:29:44 UTC https://padlet.com/emman_akot/rvefqkaoi47e/wish/124619188 emman_akot https://padlet.com/emman_akot/rvefqkaoi47e/wish/124619626 As I was walking towards checkpoint 1, I noticed the beautiful pink leaves and was astonished by how beautiful GOD created Earth. This motivated me. If it was this beautiful at checkpoint 1, imagine how beautiful it must be at the summit. I knew I wanted to summit. ]]> 2016-09-19 03:37:39 UTC https://padlet.com/emman_akot/rvefqkaoi47e/wish/124619626 emman_akot https://padlet.com/emman_akot/rvefqkaoi47e/wish/124619932 There is a lot of value in not quitting. Like me, you can enjoy a beautiful view like I did or you can be happy that you got the best leg workout in the world. In my case, I was just proud of myself. There was a lot of times where I told myself that I was done but I showed persistence. Its good to know that you did something to the best of your abilities. ]]> 2016-09-19 03:43:15 UTC https://padlet.com/emman_akot/rvefqkaoi47e/wish/124619932 emman_akot https://padlet.com/emman_akot/rvefqkaoi47e/wish/124620925 Motivation for me is self goals.I am really self motivated. I like to be different. I am known by some for my work ethic. If I want something, I try my best to get what I want. Theres nothing that particularly motivates me, I am motivated by a lot of things. ]]> 2016-09-19 03:53:08 UTC https://padlet.com/emman_akot/rvefqkaoi47e/wish/124620925 emman_akot https://padlet.com/emman_akot/rvefqkaoi47e/wish/124784973 This is comfort for me. Once I reached the summit, I instantly sat on the ground and was relieved that I finished the hike. The hike was uncomfortable. Anything that challenges my body is uncomfortable. Laying down and relaxing is comfort for me. ]]> 2016-09-19 15:23:17 UTC https://padlet.com/emman_akot/rvefqkaoi47e/wish/124784973
