There are many things in my life that push me forward and give strength to achieve my goals. Some of these can not be shared, even with my best friends or my parents. Not because they are confidential or absurd, but because they are hard to explain how they inspire me.
Yet, the video at the bottom is one of the videos that literally I have watched over twenty times and I still have the desire to watch it again. The video is one of Michael Jordan inspiration videos on the Internet. I am not big fan or anything, but the wisdom in this video are very inspiring. He is telling young basketball players how hard he worked to achieves his goals. He said a sentence that inspire me a lot, " Maybe I led you to believe that basketball was a God-given gift, and not something I worked for every single day of my life." He made me believe that there is nothing you can achieve without hard work, successful is not an easy thing to get. I hope you enjoy the video as I do.
This is the video's script, just in case if you wanted to quote something from this video or maybe you have difficulty in understanding it. I highly recommend you to watch this video and follow the script for high comprehension.
"Maybe it's my fault.
Maybe I let you to believe it was easy, when it wasn't.
Maybe I made you think my highlights started at the free throw line, and not at the gym.
Maybe I made you think that every shot I took, was a game winner.
That my game was built on flash, and not fire.
Maybe it's my fault that you didn't see that failure gave you strength. That my pain, was my motivation.
Maybe I led you to believe that basketball was a God-given gift, and not something I worked for every single day of my life.
Maybe I destroyed the game.
Or maybe, you're just making excuses."

Hi Abdulaziz,
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this Amazing video with us for two reasons. The first reason because I'm big fan of Michael Jordan. The second reason because this is really inspiring. This the first time that watch the video and I agree with all what you said about it. I am sure that all of us know that a person must work hard in order to be successful.
Hey AbdulAziz,
ReplyDeleteIt is very nice video. I have enjoyed it. I liked his words. Really it has inspiration. It is very important to believe in what you are doing in order to be successful. Thanks for sharing us this.
This short film is very impressing me. Everybody knows Michael Jordan is a successful athlete, but not much people understand how many things they have pay for their successful. Furthermore, I think he is not only tell us how many things we have to consider when we want to be success, he also tell us do not make these difficulties to be our excuse.
ReplyDeleteHi Abdulaziz,
ReplyDeleteIt is really inspiring when the greatest basketball player of all time said that failure gave him strength.
Also, I was impressed when you said that you have seen this video over 20 times, because I think watching encouraged videos can push you to work harder to reach the top.
Good choice!
