London Summer Olympic 2012 & Sochi Winter Olympic 2014

I am not good in any sports, but I do like to watch sports, especially Olympic games. I am lucky enough to watch the full coverage of the London Summer Olympics 2012 and the Sochi Winter Olympics 2014, courtesy of BBC. Watching the winter Olympics especially, is an eye opener for me. There are sports like bobsleigh, luge, skeletons, speed skating, moguls, curling etc, I couldn't imagine these could be listed as part of the games (not in a bad way). Curling especially, I have a good laugh every time watching it. I just couldn't get why the players are shouting at the stone, or the way the stone moves, and the sweeping guys. Oh gosh, good fun, I know I am gonna miss watching the sports.

I find it very inspiring (at least it has deeply inspired me), how the athletes get through to the hurdles to achieve their goals. I remembered the times watching some of the sports (Badminton and Equestrian) live in the London Summer Olympics 2012. The whole thing is just very positive, providing us endless positive energy that we desperate need to get on with our life. Nothing comes easy. My reflection watching the games are: 1) have I done enough to achieve my goal? and 2) do I really want my dream bad enough?

I think I know what I need to do next. I hope you have enjoyed the games as much as I did :)
