When you have a talent for writing, only the same evidence that gives shape to a theme providing quality translates what we are as human beings.
In sport you have to have a strong mentality as well as in life in order to succeed, you encounter obstacles, but you move forward because you have a strong character and determination to succeed.
That's what happens with big stars in sport, they are the ones who break with adversity, the ones who work hardest despite the talent they have as a great resource, but all that arsenal has to be molded to be effective.
I remember Kobe Bryant in 2004 was accused of rape, the whole panorama for this great player darkened, McDonald's, Nutella and Nike cancelled their advertising contracts with Kobe, the scandal had ended with the good image of 'the black mamba', his career was in danger and he had to recover it but he had to settle the accusation and a pending trial, despite all this was still playing at a high level.
Fortunately, a few public words on the subject led to the trial not being held. In March 2005, a couple of months after the trial was canceled, Bryant and the victim reached a confidential settlement, with a maximum financial compensation of two and a half million dollars, as required by Colorado law.
In July 2005, Kobe was back. The same sports brand that had terminated his advertising contract rescued him from the dark by using photographs of him in his ads. The mamba' was resurrected.
That speaks volumes about the character and willpower one must have to avoid the obstacles that often arise in life.
Michael Jordan who in all his sporting career only suffered from his most serious injury in 1985 specifically his second season of the NBA with the Bulls, when unfortunately he broke his left foot and could not play in 64 games. It is said that at that time Jordan to have a greater and more precise recovery put all his effort and did rehabilitation work in a pool and I think that made him stronger and in a way also made him challenge gravity with his great creative aerial plays.
This tells us of perseverance not to be defeated by any kind of threats, because conviction, when we know who we are and what we are capable of, it is very difficult to be intimidated before anyone, only God can influence very powerfully in our lives and be able to decipher the true reflection of our soul, is the only one who has that power.
The superstar level is not for everyone, only a few have that gift, certainly when we have talent and configure it along with other essential resources in an almost perfect gear, we can glimpse that light that leaves the glimmer of a star.
I hope you enjoy this publication and understand absolutely the message that when we defeat the shadows and can move to the next level we are worthy of respect for our perseverance, perseverance and work, that speaks for us.
