CHAMPION, Are You Truly One?
Peace!
Usually, a lot of us prematurely declare ourselves to be something without truly understanding the weight of the declaration we are making. I’m aware that at times this is done incorrectly, for example: I hear the expression “the champ is here” constantly being used, but honestly, what do we know about being champions within our own Selves? Who is the greatest opponent we’ve ever faced? As for me, I know that the toughest opponent I’ve ever faced was and is “MYSELF,” yes I said “MYSELF!” In order for me to truly be the champion that I declare myself to be, I have to get into the ring with MYSELF!
Most are probably wondering “has he lost his mind?” But the answer to that is that during our everyday walks of life, we are constantly being governing by 2 masters: 1) the mental and 2) the physical. These 2 opponents are always clashing with one another. We are constantly being ruled by our physical, because mentally we aren’t strong opponents. Mentally, a lot of us always have the right intentions when it comes to things we want to bring to the world and live out! That’s not good enough because the physical tends to make it impossible due to the fact that our limbs are not being put to use to manifest these thoughts or ideas!
So the reason why I said that the toughest opponent one has to face is himself is due to the fact that one must master himself! Internally, it’s a never-ending battle between the mind and body. Right now some of us aren’t champions because we are under the control of our physical beings. When our physical selves shut down the message that’s being relayed from our mind, we become convinced that whatever we are doing at that moment is impossible, so in turn, we tend to feel tired and exhausted. All we want to do is lay back and put our feet up. Now on the opposite end, if we say no to what the physical wants, it seems as if the physical self rebels! We begin to fight sleep, we feel lazy, we can’t focus, emotions get involved. These are all the tactics being used by the physical to overpower us mentally. Most of us have dealt or will deal with this challenge. In order to rise above this challenge, one must have that mental vigor and go toe to toe with the toughest opponent ever encountered! How people come out will depend on their mental fight game. Always remember, when we choose to step into the ring with the self, there won’t be any referees. It will be a fight until one overcomes the other! At the end of this fight, you will know more about yourself than you ever had, and the truth will reveal itself!
“Two Gods must never fight unless one must die”! Well, at this moment, we are being ruled by 2 Gods, the mental, which is our higher self, and the physical, which is our lower self! Remember, one must die! Ask Yourself, which will prevail?
So before we declare ourselves to be the champs, let us step in the ring and face ourselves. Trust, there is no tougher opponent in life other than YOURSELF!
ASK YOURSELF:
1. How will you come out if you choose to step in the ring?
2. Are you mentally prepared?
3. How many rounds are you prepared to go?
Peace
