"I-think-I-can! I-think-I-can! I-think-I-can! I-think-I-can! I-think-I-can! I-think-I-can! I think I can - I think I can - I think I can I think I can--"
I believe to be a pro you have to have the mindset too.
But having the belief doesn't mean you will be.
How many BBer's you know had the dedication, discipline, and desire yet still were never able to earn a pro-card.
EXAMPLE: I can spend my whole life wanting to be the President. I can be the most qualified, well- spoken, and best financed candidate there is- but in the end if not enough people vote for me then I haven't done anything with my "dream" no matter how much I believed.
I believe you have to have the mind of a pro to become a pro. That is if you are symetrical as well. More people could be pro caliber if they were more consistant also...
BBing isnt about who trains the hardest, who diets the hardest, who does the most cardio, who sacrifices the most in their life, who uses this new drug or supplement. You can only control so much. On one side of the fence how many current pros were told they would never make it? But then like Dante states... the odds arent in favor of many, very few of actually winning a pro card. If its meant to be it will find its way. If you enjoy it dont let someone tell you what you can and cannot do. But... be realistic listen to the ones that have been around the proverbial block. You can learn from their experiences. Ive always been good at being ugly and fat and I excelled past everyone and dominate!!!
