“I had no idea what I was walking into, and the years and years of hard work it would take. I felt like an outsider and like it was never going to happen. But even if I would have known, I think I still would have done it.

“I really feel like a walking testimony of like if you set your mind to things, how things can come true for you. I feel like I'm like, like the law of attraction. I feel like I'm living that life wholeheartedly. Everything that I've looked for out of life, it's come to be so far... I'm working hard, I'm not getting lucky, I'm earning things... I feel like a living testament to how you can just put your mind to anything and make it happen.” IfsFeelsMindHardHappensLawWalkingLuckyAttractionLaw Of AttractionMmaEarningTestamentTestimonyMake It HappenWholeheartedly Author:Jon Jones
“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
“If you are walking backward, away from something you think is a mistake, you may be right in supposing it is a mistake, but for you to be walking backward is never right. You know what happens to people who walk backward.... We are meant to walk forward, not backward, and reaction is always a matter of walking backward.” PeopleIfsThinkingKnowsMayMatterHappensWalksMistakeWalkingReactionsSupposingSupposing That Author:J.
