Like a boxer, we love our corner. It’s the space we’re comfortable, there’s no one beating us up, we get good pep-talks from others and from ourselves and we are able to catch our breath.
The corner’s a safe place.
Unlike a boxer, we don’t leave the corner as much as we should. We don’t go out and put up a good fight, pick ourselves up when knocked down, get aggressive and enter the mental battle of endurance and determination in pursuit of our goal to make a difference.
I think, if we’re going to live life similar to a boxer, we might as well go at it fully; to use the corner when needed, but ultimately spend most of our time in the ring, working to fulfill our dream.
Stay Positive & Ding Ding
