In the midst surrounding all the excitement of the World Cup, I felt it was appropriate to highlight to talents of the game’s best player – Cristiano Ronaldo, forward of Real Madrid and captain of the Portuguese national team. Leaders, you will absolute love the motivational video above provided by Bleacher Report. It is transcribed for you below.
“The journey of a hero at its earliest, most humble beginnings, is nothing more than a desire for greatness. It is a stone cold focus on one thing and one thing only – to become the best that you can be.
All the failure. All the critics. All the hype. All the bright lights and rumors. They are nothing but distractions.
The goal always has been and always will be the same and everything you do, every moment you are out on that field, every second you spend practicing, refining your craft is all aimed at that ultimate goal.
Because the journey of a hero isn’t about the money. It isn’t about the fame or the awards. It is about something much more important. It is about becoming a legend.
And legends aren’t born from mediocrity. They are born from excellence. They are born from being the best. From being the hardest working.
Legends are born from failure. They are born from falling down time and time again and having the grit to get back up again.
Legends are born from adversity. They are forged in the crucible of struggle. Heroes come and go.
But legends, legends live forever.”
