Are you a true champion?

“Being a true champion has more to do with who you know you are already, but ironically not with what you are trying to become.” - Tadayoshi Inoue

Are you a true champion? What is a true champion? More than just winning, a true champion is a state of being that a person lives on the inside. It is an internal acknowledgement of who you know you are intrinsically. 

For example, someone might say that they are willing to do whatever it takes to be a champion, but somehow they always get stuck. They seem to always fall short, and they can’t seem to capture the accomplishments they desire. The reason is build into who they think they are right now!

I may be willing to do all that is necessary, but what is really necessary is for me to feel the confidence of a champion before I win. This means I already feel like I have won even before I ever step on stage or on the field. 

True champions know they’re winners because winning for them equals learning how to be a little better every time they come out to compete. They collect their wins of course, but what they are focused on is what they are learning each time out. This is why over time these players win, win and win some more. After all, there is only so much learning to be better you can do before everyone else is trying to catch up with you! 

I am love. I am joy. I am so very good. And, I am a champion for sure!

Success for a true champion relies on the process of learning and growing.
