I am looking for a motivational sport video on youtube, which I saw couple of years back, but can't find it now. It shows a girl on a snowboard and a guy in a wheelchair doing pull up with elevation training mask. As I recall, video has a question why do we do it, and ends with an answer something like because we are obsessed... Video lasts for 2-3 minutes

I am motivated when i see persons in wheelchair or any impediment extending themselves beyond the ordinary. Let me give you a real life experience as told by Zoya Dimitrova..
When I was 15, I began touring with the circus. For three blissful years, I was living my dream I was performing an acrobatic act high above the crowd. . My partner, suspended upside down, would twirl me up in the air and then catch me I missed his hand and fell twenty feet injured my spine among other injuries. That was a very dark time in my life. My accident 40 years ago shattered my dream of a life of performance and travel and left me confined to a wheelchair.
Well, I was introduced to a Circus Artist who visited me and during the course of our conversation, he asked me about my hope of recovery. Disillusioned and disappointed with life, I replied that there was no hope. When he told me that only God could help me, I replied bitterly, “Well, if there is a God, why am I in such a situation?” He very kindly explained to me the Bible’s wonderful promises for the future. I was thrilled to learn that soon the earth will become a paradise. The promise that “death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore” touched my heart. (Revelation 21:4) How I longed to regain my physical health! I immediately agreed to have a regular Bible study. I got baptized and now helping others to learn the truth and hope what the bible really teach. It is comforting to know, that this disability is but temporary.
Looking back, I can see that things in my life have turned out very differently from what I had dreamed of in my youth. Serving Jehovah has brought me the greatest happiness possible now and a marvelous hope for the future. I treasure God’s promise that in the paradise earth, “the lame one will climb up just as a stag does.” (Isaiah 35:6) I look forward with full confidence to the day when I will leap from my wheelchair, restored to perfect health and vigor.
This experience is not to depress you but to motivate you that a solution in the near future will be everlasting and you can start now to have the real life until then. For more information on this subject and others, please go to jw.org for free downloads, publications or read online.
