“Your body can dictate your mind, so when I walk to a fight a lot of times I'm scared, I'm scared to death, I have a lot of doubts of myself, I'm afraid to fail, I'm afraid to be humiliated in front of everybody; but what happens, I act like it's impossible for me to fail and that my victory is a certainty. So as I'm walking to the Octagon and I act with confidence my body takes over my mind and I become confident for real. As I'm walking I see the change in my mind and when I reach the Octagon I'm a different person, I'm very confident.” MindPersonsDifferentRealBodyHappensFightingWalksDoubtImpossibleFailingFrontsVictoryWalkingScaredYour BodyCertaintyMmaHumiliatedAfraid To Fail Author:Georges St-Pierre
“Victory is freedom of mind and body.' I believe that is true. I would go further and say that victory is freedom of mind from body. Separation from the thing that imprisons us. Flight. Perhaps freedom from life itself. That is victory. Life is brutal. It is like this whip and these ropes. It hurts. It scars. But we must take it.” MindBelieveBodyLife IsI BelieveHurtVictorySeparationFlightScarBrutalIt HurtsRopeMind And BodyWhips Book:The Machinery of Night Source: The Machinery of Night
