Motivation thread
I'm gonna start off with a little manlet known as Alexader the Great.
After rampaging through Persia, trying to conquer the known world, Alexander had to cut off the Persians from their sea assets in the Mediterranean sea.
Problem was, Alexander had no ships. He tore them apart after landing in Asia and used them to build siege engines.
He had captured every port the persians could have used to harass greece, except for one named Tyre.
Tyre was located one mile off the mainland, in a heavily defended city with walls 50 feet high.
Alexander offered peace terms. His envoys were killed and dumped into the ocean.
Alex, already mad about being a manlet, decided to take the city. Problem was, he was
>noships
So, he spends six months creating a mole, or earthen causeway up to the gates of this city. After many setbacks, he finally breaches the wall, sells all the women and children into slavery, and crucifies 10,000 men on the beaches.
Alexander faced an insurmountable task, and accomplished it. He literally changed the face of this planet.
Tyre used to be an island. Now its a penninsula.
Be like Alexander.
