how to become a CHAMPION

Well, this is something I just came up with a while ago and I would like to share it with you guys.

Living as a student is a challenge. Well, that’s partially true. But do you know what the REAL truth is? Living as a CHAMPION in life, as in being a daughter/son to or parents, sister/brother to our siblings, friend, classmate, roommate, housemate, coursemate…and the list goes on. Whatever we do in life, is a challenge. Heck, marriage is a challenge as well!

So, I would like to ask you one question. Do you want to be a champion? This champion title I’m offering you will not be acknowledged by others, it’s not even close the title presentation like the ones you see on WWE RAW wrestlers. But one thing I can offer you is the pleasure to feel like a champ.

First of all, what’s a champion? How does a champion look like to you? a champion is a person who overcomes all obstacles in a given situation, fights bravely and ends up winning the battle with his head held high. Same here, to be a champion, you’ll feel satisfied that you can walk out of a battle with you head held high. But being a champion in this case is a little bit different. Wanna see why?

a champion is respected by others

1-      Champion in my context is a person who doesn’t fight over little stuff. They look beyond the given situation. They see if it’s worth it to fight for the thing they’re fighting for. If you think it’s worth it fighting over a candy or a seat in the bus, then you’re not a champion.

2-      Champion in my context is a person who is respected for who he is. You may think apologizing or making the first move means being a coward and not cool, but a champion does all of these without feeling ashamed. Guess what? In the end, you’ll end up with more people knowing you for who you are and they’ll not only love you, they respect you.

   -    Champion in this context means someone who isn’t afraid to apologize. You may think a champion should be macho and never say the word ‘Sorry’ to anybody, including their parents or friends. Guess what? A person who says ‘sorry’ is a respectful person. And the other person who receives the apology would feel great about you. by the way, saying sorry lifts up the weight off your shoulders, and you’ll end up happier than you were before.

-    Champion in this context is a person who tries not to make anybody angry or mad at them. They’d do whatever it takes to do this. They would try to limit conversations with the person who is not very compatible with them and find other alternatives instead. This is a champion. He tries to settle in a different environment, dependent on himself. Great right?

\-  Champion in this context is a person who is always improvising himself from time to time. everyday is a challenge to them, in a way that they must change to be a better person from a day-to-day basis. 

So, that’s pretty much it I guess. After all, these are my opinions, some may agree with me and some may not. But trust me, I myself tried on these and I feel like a champ, so why not give it a try. Be a champ in your own situations, and you’ll know it when you feel it. You don’t have to go around telling people you’re a champ. It’s enough that you yourself know you’re a champ! Good luck! =)
