LEGENDARY
Legendary status is not attained because one have had a clean and successful life, it is not gotten because you never failed, but it is attained by what you make of yourself in spite of your failures, challenges, and difficulties.
The legendary Michael Jordan once said, “I have missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. Twenty-six times, I have been trusted to take the game-winning shot and missed. I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.” Today, Michael Jordan is a legend, not because he had it all smooth, but because despite his many failures, he never gave up, and eventually recorded huge successes.
“Legends are not born legends are made” you might not have come from the lineage of legends, it might not have been recorded of anyone around you, or that you know, that became legends, but you can be the first one. You can be the progenitor of a generation of legends. One becomes legendary by performing legendary acts. Legendary acts are acts of courage, bravery, guts, and gumption, it is moving forward even when there is no strength to move at all.
Legends never quit, they would rather lose than quit, but they never give in to defeat, they always come back again, until they win. In the words of Michael Jordan, “Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, others make it happen.” don't just want or wish for what you want, do not leave it to chance, but make it happen. Go all out for what you want, be focused, determined, and dogged, be LEGENDARY, because legends make it happen.
