Today, I remember and honour this icon. He brought passion to basketball. He is indeed a blessing to the game and humanity. He is a legend in the game of basketball and has left his footprints in the history of basketball. I can't help but love him more everyday.
Michael Jordan is a former American basketball player who led Chicago Bulls to six NBA championships and won the regular-season MVP(Most valuable player) award five times. He also won three all-star MVP awards. Jordan became the most decorated player in the NBA.
"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over again in my life and that's why I succeed".- MICHAEL JORDAN.
What thrills me the most is the encouraging words Jordan said to his fans and everyone that supported him.
* "I know fear is an obstacle for some people but it's an illusion for me".
When you let go of your fears, you take advantage of all opportunities and make the best out of it.
* "I can accept failure but I can't accept not trying".
There's no need giving up when you fail. A little effort and one more trial after every fall will definitely make your dreams come true.
* "If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it. Go through it or walk around it".
In times of trouble, be confident enough to face challenges and never be discouraged.
* "Live the moment for the moment".
Enjoy every moment of your life like it's your last.
* "Let your game be your promotional or marketing tool".
Just allow your excellence to speak for itself.
* "If you work hard, you'll get rewarded. There are no shortcuts in life".
Working hard pays.
Conquer your fears by making decisions and taking actions. Don't get lost in the details so much that you lose sight of the basics. Embrace your setbacks and failures as fuel and motivation. In no time at all, all things will work for good.
