In order to be champion, you have to first want to be a champion. What does being a champion mean? In any walk of life, being a champion is not only winning a championship but also having a winning mentality and giving your all in everything you do. I'm referring to the attitude you train with, you learn with and do anything at all with, no matter how small, because you know that that it will help you achieve the goal of winning the championship. Being a champion is an attitude and not a goal. Being punctual for every appointment, for every training and giving your all each time is a question of attitude. Having the mentality of constant improvement, knowing that you don't know everything and that you aren't perfect either is the attitude of a champion. Establishing priorities in your life, sacrificing your happiness in the short term, paying attention to the small details and the basics is the attitude of a champion. Taking every adversity as an opportunity and never giving up, doing what you are supposed to do in a disciplined way, whether it's raining or you're sleepy or your head hurts or you just don't feel like it or any other excuse that you can come up with is the attitude of a champion. It is never quitting, no matter what the hardships are. It is getting up early every day to train, to study or to read. It is making the most of of your time, being grateful for everything you have and being humble enough to thank the Creator for all the gifts that have been bestowed on you. It is eating and sleeping well every day as if you were playing in the final game for a world championship. It is smiling no matter what the circumstances, accepting your mistakes and constantly learning from them. It is enjoying everything you do and doing it as if it were the last day of your life.
