To be able to give fifty is not what really matters, what really matters is being able to give your 100%, if it means that you can only do 10, well, 10 is great. Do not fall for other people’s standards, if you are giving your all, that is what matters, but do not fool yourself think that you reached your limit, as the real limits are those we set ourselves.
