Tom Brady: To Be the Best You Have To Beat the Best
Today’s Kick Butt Tip of the Day is from the G.O.A.T., Tom Brady.
Tom Brady – How To Be the Best
In an interview, football legend Tom Brady said “no one’s good at everything. I mean, that’s just not the way life works. What you know is very limited and what you don’t know is limitless. Those who stay will be champions.
If I want to be the best I’ve got to beat the best. If I want to be good, I gotta wake up in the morning. I gotta do the extra work and I gotta show up when the other guys aren’t. I’ve gotta learn. I’ve gotta continue to be open to learning. But I had to take it to a new level that the other guys wouldn’t. Nothing was given to me. So I’m going to go out there and compete as hard as I can. And I’m gonna treat practice like a game and I’m gonna gain the respect of my teammates every day through my work ethic. I’m going to work hard in the weight room. I am going to work hard to be a good student. Whatever they ask me to do that’s what I’m going to do to the best of my ability. I never once in my life said that I want to be the best of all time. I’m just a story like everybody else. I wanted to be the best I could be period. And I said be proud of the man in the glass. Be proud of that man that wakes up every day and does the best he can do. Build on your strengths. Focus on what you can control.”
Now that is one incredible work ethic from the man with the most Super Bowl rings ever, Tom Brady. No wonder so many fans refer to Tom Brady as the G.O.A.T. The Greatest of All Time.
