The journey doesn’t end on the podium. You deserve to win when you look beyond winning. When the challenges ahead are all you think of rather than the colour of the medals.

Hi, I’m Marilyn Wo and this is StarPlayer Academy episode 126.
You Deserve to Win When You Don’t think about Winning but Think About Overcoming Challenges
You don’t have to be the fastest, you don’t have to be the strongest.
But let me tell you this, you must be willing to go through the pain and overcome that discomfort. Maybe your teammates are faster than you in that same drill you are going through, it doesn’t matter.
All you need to do is to complete it as fast as you can base on what you can do.
So the faster you go the more painful, the faster you go, you feel your muscles burning more. That’s what you should be feeling.
You see, pain is not permanent, you go through that and you end the day with a good rest to repeat the next day.
What you are going through is practice. As you do this day by day, you’ll realise you’ll feel less pain by the day.
Then you move on to the next challenge to experience a different form of pain and the cycle continues.
This can take days, months or years, I tell you, it can take a whole lot of your time, it can take days of waking up before the sun rises to get out there to grind. But this is how many athletes before you succeeded.
You hear of many people winning without putting in the work. All they can ever be proud of is that they can get there without working, and that’s all. They don’t deserve it. They only deserve it when they realise what they are capable of and move forward to challenge themselves further after winning. Sadly, most never do so because of how they think.
The journey doesn’t end on the podium. You deserve to win when you look beyond winning. When the challenges ahead are all you think of rather than the colour of the medals.
Don’t think about winning, think about overcoming challenges.
