TREAT OTHERS HOW YOU WANT TO BE TREATED.

The Mind and Journey of a Champion Fighter

Kindness seems like a basic idea, but when youโ€™re a champion itโ€™s not high on your list.

The Golden Rule isnโ€™t always easy.

Especially when youโ€™re focused on yourself.

But you can be the best and be good to others.

It takes discipline.

It takes mentorship.

And it takes a commitment to whatโ€™s important in life.

No matter what youโ€™ve done in your past, you can always reinvent yourself.

On todayโ€™s episode of The School of Greatness, I dive deep into never giving up from a champion who went through dark times: Mike Tyson.
