“Don’t quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.”
That’s what makes a winner. A champion. That’s what makes Muhammad Ali.
Muhammad Ali was one of the greatest boxers the world has ever seen and today, the legend left us. One of the rarest souls who was born to achieve greatness. The loss made us reflect on his life a bit and we stumbled upon this video which made us realise that becoming what he was is more than what meets the eye.
The man behind that powerful name, the title of an Heavyweight Champion, the terrifying boxer, the sportsman like no other, one of the pioneers of boxing and everything he is known for is much more precious than we know. He indeed was a winner because he knew he was one way before he proved it. Some people might call that arrogance as they did to the outspoken boxer, but there is more truth in his words than anybody realised.
“I know where I’m going and I know the truth, and I don’t have to be what you want me to be. I’m free to be what I want.”
This video posted by mohdsalim009 of the legendary motivational speaker, Shiv Khera explaining why champions like Ali are rare is pure gold for those who aspire to be a real winner in life.
We will miss you, Muhammad Ali. Thank you for inspiring us with your life.Â
