Muhammad Ali is surely one guy who wrote his own story in his own way! Some of his words to energize and uplift you:
“I am an ordinary man who worked hard to develop the talent I was given. I believed in myself, and I believe in the goodness of others.”
“It’s lack of faith that makes people afraid of meeting challenges, and I believed in myself.”
“I shook up the world, I shook up the world.”
“He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.”
“I hated every minute of training, but I said, ‘Don’t quit. Suffer now and
live the rest of your life as a champion.”
“Only a man who knows what it is like to be defeated can reach down to the bottom of his soul and come up with the extra ounce of power it takes to win when the match is even.”
“I am the greatest, I said that even before I knew who I was.”
“It’s the repetition of affirmations that leads to belief. And once that belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen.”
“I should be a postage stamp because that’s the only way I’ll ever get licked. I’m beautiful. I’m fast. I’m so mean I make medicine sick. I can’t possibly be beat.”
“My only fault is that I don’t realize how great I really am.”
“Life is so, so short. Bible says it’s like a vapor.”
“I wanted to use my fame and this face that everyone knows to help uplift and inspire people around the world.”
“Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth.”
“What keeps me going is goals.”
“Superman don’t need no seat belt.”
“The man who has no imagination has no wings.”
May Ali’s bracing bravado energize and inspirit you as we all write on!
