I told athletes and patients that I went to school for
33 years to be prepared for the future.
Unfortunately, I am not. The questions and answers change constantly,
but I learned to move with the waves. The
fiction of Aldous Huxley is with us more and more. The

I followed what it is mentioned in the internet that Bill

What to do in such circumstances? China has always done it its way. A Mexican Newspaper shows images of how they develop champions, EL UNIVERSAL. I am not a Chinese. My question has always been, how to bring the temples to the streets so humanity could survive?

Triathlon and The Loss of The Grand Narratives
Cultures are not holding the values needed to perform at a high level. If those values exist, they are guarded in temples; France has clubs and families; America has universities and professional teams. Sometimes we call those temples High Performance Institutes or substitutes; but even there, the values/standards are very limited so a good performance is difficult. Germany, Australia, Switzerland, Russia and many other countries have cultures that are unable to keep a High Performance environment when they were doing a good job not to long ago. It appears that it is not something that is worth pursuing nowadays. Instant gratification and "pursue of happiness" is more important than commitment to a cause.
