All great men, athletes, the legends.
Watching their performance at the peak of they career I believe makes everyone who practise any kind of sports hope and aim that one day we are going to reach to the point when we will leave all the competition far behind.
To the point when everyone watching our performance instead of asking "if" we are going to win, going to be asking "when?" and "how?"this is going to happen.
We tent to look at them as at some sorts of superheros who have some incredible powers and cut through the obstacles with ease.
We tent to look at them at their prime and forgetting how much they have gone through to reach that level.
We forget those who are right behind them in the ranks of the certain discipline.
Those who are actually the reasons why our heroes are or were pushing they training so hard that it brought them superpowers.
Instead of hoping to become another Muhammad Ali or Usain Bolt, I believe we should rather understand that all those great athletes above have gone through their ups and downs.
They have also lost,they have also been knocked out.
They have they story as well as we do.
What made them exceptional and standing out from the crowd?
There will be few different factors. One, I would say the most important would be their drive and never give up attitude.
In a real life of the athlete we need to understand that competition is big, there is a lot of talented, motivated and hard working individuals out there.
We all hope for an easy wins and only wins.
But the true is that when you begin compete at the high level it is more like hundred meter sprint race, where split second difference can change the final score.
We need to push hard right to the end.
Train hard for weeks, months, years for these one hundred meters race which will change our lives.
