No one is born a warrior.
You become a warrior. You train yourself. You learn from people you admire and respect.
You challenge yourself. You set a standard for your actions that is above average. “Good enough” is not good enough for you.
You focus on what is important. You are not distracted by unimportant things. You spend time with others who share your goals. You help them get better just as they help you improve.
You stand for your values. Your actions reflect a respect for the value of competition.
You are constantly learning and improving. You are open to new ideas and find ways to adopt the best ones.
You recognize that there is always room for improvement. You know that success is enjoying the journey toward achievement, not the achievement itself.
You never quit. No matter how tough it gets, you are tougher. You find a way to your goal or you make a new way.
You control your mind and emotions. You choose your reaction to circumstances. You are not at the mercy of your situation.
You take action on your top priorities. You don’t need external motivation. You are in charge of your life.
You know how your mind works and can find all the motivation you will ever need.
You are strong and getting stronger. You protect the weak. You challenge oppression.
You strive to be better than your past. You bounce back from mistakes and learn from each one so they are not repeated.
You see the best in others. You recognize the worst as an opportunity for growth.
You are an example for others. You are a beacon of possibility.
You are a warrior. You never give up on your dreams.
Warriors WIN.
