Excerpt from her post:
“This morning I woke up to the news that the greatest of all time, Muhammad Ali, had passed away.
I’d like to share some of his quotes and thoughts with you as well as take some time to reflect on what they’ve taught me….
“What keeps me going is goals.”
It’s easy to get stuck in life. You achieve something great yet you aren’t happy. There’s great value in having things to go for, and if you know where you’re heading you can always learn to navigate the terrain.
“I hated every minute of training, but I said, ‘Don’t quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion’.”
Often we labor under the illusion that we should “feel like” doing the things that are getting us closer to where we want to go. Well, instead of fighting our emotions, isn’t it better to accept that we’re actually not feeling like it? Feel the feels and do it anyway.
“Only a man who knows what it is like to be defeated can reach down to the bottom of his soul and come up with the extra ounce of power it takes to win when the match is even.”
Sometimes the fear of losing is a greater motivator than the will to win. Find out if this rings true in your case and use that energy toward something productive.
“The fight is won or lost far away from witnesses — behind the lines, in the gym, and out there on the road, long before I dance under those lights.”
When we observe a master of their craft working, we just see the results. We don’t see the countless hours spent practicing and honing their craft. The same goes for us. It’s easy to say that someone’s “naturally gifted” or “lucky” when we don’t get to see the whole process.”
