About this listen
No matter where you’re at with your sport - you might be an amateur hobbyist, a college student, or a professional at the peak of their game - you’ve probably got some idea of what the word "champion" means to you. It’s a word that evokes images of someone who’s entirely capable and confident in every way they want to be. A champion is respected and revered by all their teammates and opponents, and they set the standard for what perfect play looks like. Champions don’t just win - they never lose.
Of course, all these ideas are just imaginary. In reality, even the best players in any sport are bound to lose occasionally. No professional has a training day that’s easy - assuming they’re truly pushing themselves to their limits. Sometimes, people at the peak of their game even make mistakes - that’s just proof that they’re still human. The truth is, what makes a champion isn’t these ideas of flawless competition that just can’t exist. A champion isn’t defined by what they do, but how they do it.
And, if you’ve ever decided you want to understand this how, you’ve come to the right place.
