Beard Training: Don't Ever Let Anyone Tell You That You Can't Accomplish Your Dreams:-)

It's been three months since the first Steemit Beard Competition!

While everyone else is contemplating nine months to go until the next competition on Easter 2018...I'm training.

Champions aren't made in a day.

Don't think beard training is easy, not for a hot second! My eyes are burning as if I rubbed them in a jalapeno's armpit as I type this from all the toxic hairspray fumes I inhaled during a long day's beard work out.

My face is as sore as a cow that was just artificially inseminated by a human arm from pulling on my beard hair to style it.

I am sure I will be spending an hour or so trying to get hair spray and gel out of my beard while crying like a church on Monday.

Beard training takes some serious pain tolerance and time.


My daughter is currently looking for her favorite hair bow, but I don't have the heart to tell her it may have become a beard training casualty.

My wife is looking for her Bobbie pins but they were no match for the steel wool I have on my face.

Beard training takes some serious moolah cash money.

My wife keeps asking what the smell is on my face. How can any decent upstanding man tell his wife he used a whole bottle of hairspray in one day on his beard?... much less tell her I was training for my dream of being a Steemit Beard Champion!

She already thinks it's a ridiculous dream and akin to bog snorkeling.

Beard training takes a lot of soul searching and personal sacrifice.

It's all worth it when vying for the gold.

  • No one believed Joe Dirt would find his parents.
  • No one believed Joe Yoder would do the backwards running mile in under 6 minutes.
  • No one believed Bobby Boucher would be anything more than a water boy.

Everyone told them their dreams were impossible.

Don't ever let someone hold you away from your dreams.

I'm not letting anyone hold me away from mine.
