When you actually try, you raise foot-long spikes straight through the pavement. That wasn't an accident, and that wasn't luck - that was you knowing what you wanted and making it happen.

And you could do it again - bigger, more, without exhausting yourself - if you work at it. I'm not looking at what you've got - I'm looking at what you're capable of. You just have to work for it, and you'll have it.

The potential is there, and he knows it - he just has to get Greg to see it too.]
