Act like a Champion to become a Champion
When you aspire to be something you're not right now, it can be very tricky to change in order to become that person. Because in the process of changing yourself you are always reminded of your old self, your old habits. Something is holding you back, it wants you to revert back to your old self.
So even if it whispers into your ear that it isn't worth it, do it anyway. Resist the temptation to be the same. Being the same means that you haven't changed a bit. Life requires us to evolve. We humans are supposed to evolve with time.
In order to be a butterfly you must come out of the cocoon, you cannot be a lion and a cub at the same time. And it is our destiny to be a butterfly, yet the comfort of modern life has made us deny that destiny.
For what is a man supposed to do if not strive towards his ideals?
Does he have anything better to do?
I don't think so.
To become a champion you need to first act like one. Behave like a champion, copy their mannerisms.
What do they do when they wake up?
What do they do when they're tired?
Champion is a state of mind. It's a way of being. It isn't just something that you automatically fit into like a shoe. It's a transformation.
Pick a champion from history, pick a king, a conqueror, a leader. Study them and try to understand how they thought, absorb that information and now put yourself in their shoes.
You are now them. How would you behave? How would you live your life if you knew you were a champion?
You probably wouldn't behave the way you do now. That is the difference between a champion and you. A champion behaves like a champion, you don't. That's why he's a champion and you're not.
A champion is fearful of not being a champion, so he works rigorously to be a champion. Do you feel the same way? If you do, are you willing to sacrifice for that?
Your answer to these questions will decide if you have the desperation to be one.
The ingredients for a champion exist in all of us, but only a few of us become one.
Recall who you were before society told you who you were and destroyed your self-esteem. Telling you how to breathe, shit, eat and live. Regain your sense of self.
You are not a group, you are an individual. And individuals are unique.
A group is not a champion, an individual is a champion. And a group of individual champions make a winning team.
So folks,
Resist the temptation to be the same, behave like a champion to become one.
See Ya!
