The tools I handle are words. They may be unappreciated or misunderstood, but they tell us who we are.
Anything acquired without effort, and without cost is generally unappreciated.
I haven't ever found any great writing on that wonderful and often unappreciated art form, the insult.
Women only nag when they feel unappreciated.
I can see a movie and believe the story and characterization and stay proud of it. It doesn't change. Even if it's unappreciated, that doesn't mean it can't be appreciated in the future.
White Hot Concentration is the unappreciated fruit of hard ligting, especially squats. When your in the squat rack, with a serious amount of weight overhead, your life literally depends on maintaining concentration. You learn to block out the swirling images in the mirror, the obnoxious chatter of the people next to you, the fat drop of sweat running down your nose. Once you've mastered this concentration in the weight room, duplicating it on the race course is relatively easy. Champions have only a few things in common. One weapon they all possess is White Hot Concentration.
Some things are not meant to be kept forever. . . You know you have to stop and let go when things aren't going right, and everything you do is unappreciated. Remember what batman said? 'it is wiser to be alone but happy. . . than with somebody who does nothing while you're doing everything. . . '
