7 Quick Wisdom Gems From Muhammed Ali:

We all know who The Greatest Boxer of all time is… There is no disputing it is and will always be Muhammed Ali. We know his boxing journey and his ability to entertain us with his words. We also know him as a man who promotes nothing but peace and wisdom. Let us look back at a few of his greatest words of wisdom.

1. “True wisdom is knowing when you can’t be wise.”

Yes we are human. We will never know everything. We will never be good at everything. Our creator gave us strengths and weaknesses. If we do not have the wisdom in a certain area of our lives then we should seek out the wise and make them our friends. So together we can become all wise, this is iron sharpening iron.

2. “Old age is just a record of one’s whole life.”

What does your record look like so far? Every day we are writing the next page or creating the next scene in our life movie.

Within this movie will be drama, errors, heartache, bumps, bruises all mixed up with moments of great joy, eloquence, sadness, and wisdom. But by the time we reach the last scene – may it end with us uttering the words, “I have lived a full and fulfilled life – learn from these mistakes and continue to be better than yesterday.”

3. “It isn’t the mountains ahead to climb that wear you out; it’s the pebble in your shoe.”

Take time to rid ourselves of any bad habits that are the pebble altering our journey. These can take the form of small seeds of bad habits. Take the time to address these issues. Deal with them and then destroy them. Decisively deal with and these so one may continue to conquer their lives.

4. “I would have been the world’s greatest at whatever I did. If I were a garbage man, I’d be the world’s greatest garbage man! I’d pick up more garbage and faster than anyone has ever seen. To tell you the truth, I would have been the greatest at whatever I’d done!”

Never be satisfied with second best. If we’re going to do anything do it right and be the greatest at it. Give 110% effort into everything we do. Be the one who adds excellence as the secret ingredient to every task taken. Become a leader after being a student.

5. “We have one life; it soon will be past; what we do for God is all that will last.”

All of us have been created for a divine purpose. We have to discover what each one of ours is.

This is a responsibility we have as humans on this beautiful planet we call earth.

We must find our purpose. Fulfill our purpose. One could only imagine nothing being worse than getting to their death bed and looking back on how they never fulfilled their calling or applied their true potential.

6. “Champions aren’t made in the gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them — a desire, a dream, a vision.”

Many of us all have that burning desire to succeed. It keep us up at night, and it wakes us up in the morning. Champions are driven to succeed, they have an inner picture of success, and they’re determined to see that picture realized.
Champions never stop until their goal is achieved, they can’t stop, and they’re on a mission.

7. “The man who has no imagination has no wings.”

We must use our wings. A bird that doesn’t use its wings won’t make it very far. As humans our imagination is our wings. It can take us anywhere. We have the ability to explore a world without limits. When we believe in our vision in that world, we birth the idea from that world, then that vision will be born in this world.
