If you stay intent and your ability warrants it, you will eventually reach the top of the mountain.
Sometimes I don’t feel good, but when you get in the ring, you can’t say “oh, I feel bad, can we stop?”
I wanted to be a world champion.
What makes you grind? You have to always be chasing something.
The greatest opportunity in the world is found here today… We already know what yesterday has got for us. It’s already gone. Tomorrow, too far away. What about right now!
Intense, burning desire is the motivational force that enables you to overcome any obstacle and achieve almost any goal.
Doubters don’t win, winners don’t doubt.
Listen to how everyone is talking about you. You have to use it as fuel for motivation.
We all can be masters at our craft, but you have to make sacrifices that come along with making that decision.
There was never any fear for me, no fear of failure. If I miss a shot, so what?
I just feel that my competitive drive is far greater than anyone else that I’ve met, and I think that I thrive on that.
If I have an agenda or a goal, no one is going to deter me from what I want to do.
You have competition every day because you set such high standards for yourself that you have to go out every day and live up to that.
There is only one person with whom to compete and that is yourself. Keep aiming to surpass your own best performance and ever strive to reach higher levels.
If you have a positive attitude and constantly strive to give your best effort, eventually you will overcome your immediate problems and find you are ready for greater challenges.
Worrying gets you nowhere. If you turn up worrying about how you’re going to perform, you’ve already lost. Train hard, turn up, run your best and the rest will take care of itself.
Inches make champions.
I’m not afraid to die on a treadmill.
