Conclusion

The Race by Greg Birkett discusses the topic of life and how it will be hard, sometimes harder than the lives of others. But you must stay focused to maintain the one thing that keeps you motivated and hold on to it. There will be times when you are going to be asking, "Can I Live?" as Jay-Z did. And a lot of times you will feel that it is only your life that is such a "Hardball" just as 'Ray-Ray' did. But in the end you will feel better than the rest to have worked harder and accomplished the same tasks by winning this race of life. One thing that should never slip your mind is that it is "endurance and "stamina" that "determines who succeeds" and not always "speed."
