Do You Really Want to Be a Champion?
By Lance Winslow

Have you ever gone onto someone's Facebook page, and they spend all their time talking about how great they are, but you actually know this person, and you know that they live a life of mediocrity. What gives? They talk a great game, and act as if they are a champion, but you know they're not, and they inherently know it is well. Perhaps they are trying to pretend or convince everyone else in the world of something that simply isn't so. Perhaps they have a low self-esteem and need self-validation, some clue, or someone to tell them that they can actually do it, because in their heart they don't believe it.

Do you want to be a champion? Do you really want to be a champion? Well, it's more than just talk, it's an attitude, a sense of commitment, a level of agility, and a system of belief. You have to have the willpower, strength of character, and personal integrity to promise yourself you are going to go all the way, and not give up or let yourself or anyone else down the process, easier said than done. There will always be talkers, and talk is cheap, that's why it comes with a four letter word; free.

There are lots of talkers, and they are everywhere you look in the real world and in the virtual one. Perhaps that's what's going on with your friend on Facebook? You know, maybe you should be the one to tell them that they can do it, that they can do anything they put their mind to, because they are smart enough, qualified, and all they have to do is put their pedal to the metal, refuse to give up, and have the perseverance to keep going and to never quit.

Perhaps you might become their personal coach because you know both sides of their game. You know where they really are, and their denial in life. You also know where they want to be, and the image they project, that hopeful future where some day they will arrive. Whereas, it is true that they probably won't, that they are too set in their ways, and can't break out of that illusion they've created, that's boxed in their mind, the schizophrenic attitude on one hand they are already great, and on the other they never can be.

Maybe by helping them get through their personal war inside their own head, you can get through yours too? I'm not suggesting that you join with them because "misery loves company," no, rather I'm suggesting that perhaps you have the same goals, dreams, and ambitions, and just perhaps you can help each other reach some interim goals, and set forth on the path to actually be that champion that you want to be, and quite possibly could be someday. Please consider all this and think on it.
