If I cannot do 1200 jump ropes without a mistake, then it is 2000 kicks! 1116, 1117, 1118-
Lee! Taking a break already?
What is it, Guy Sensei? If it is about my messing up on the last assignment, I said I was sorry.
Lee, It's true you're different from Neji and the others. You have no gift for Ninjutsu or Genjutsu, and your Taijutsu needs work. But then again, you have a gift that Neji doesn't have, not as flashy, but perhaps even more important.
You do not have to make me feel better.
You idiot, you think I'd waste my time with that? All I'm saying is that you have the gift of perseverance, and that's what makes you a genius too.
But is that true sensei? I wonder. I used to think so. I used to believe that if I just trained harder than Neji, 2 or 3 times harder, I would make myself strong enough, but now I am not so sure. I do not know if I will ever be able to work hard enough to be real talent. That is why I'm always taking out Neji. I keep thinking all of my efforts will pay off, but it's always been the same, I'm no match for him at all. Every time we have a ninja mission my legs begin shaking. I don't know if I can take it. Sometimes it seems like the whole thing is pointless. Like I am a loser and I will always be a loser. I do not know what to do.
You're right. All the effort is pointless if you don't believe in yourself!
