Mindset Mondays: Ali Says Don’t Quit Now

Mindset Mondays provide the motivation the help you mentally prepare for the week.  This week “Don’t Quit Now”.

When a person turns into a GOAT it something to be revered.  No I am not talking about magic, I am talking about the Greatest of All Time.  Muhammad Ali is considered the greatest boxer to ever lace them up and enter the ring.  He is just as famous for his punches as he is for his punchlines.  One of the best things he said was “Don’t quit.  Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion”.  Sure there are many obstacles in your pursuit of excellence.  Hurdles will be in your path.  On your path there will be many opportunities to exit the road.  There will be many opportunities to quit.  Remember that you are working for something in the future.  You are investing in a future outcome.  The price for that future outcome is the work you put in today.

Suffer through the weight lifting sessions that cause your muscles to ache.  Suffer through the countless sprints that make your legs weak and your chest full of fire.  Suffer through the long nights of watching film until your vision is blurry.  Suffer through the work you have to do today and it will make you a champion tomorrow.  Smile through the suffering as it supports your success!
