SELF WORTH

6/29/2017

21 years ago today in 1996 I won my first world title fight. I was the boy from Dubbo, on top of the world. At the time I thought nothing could beat that achievement. Since that day I faced much greater challenges - my professional sporting career shaped who I am today and I am grateful for that.
.

Fighting taught me you've always got more left inside. The body may be aching and your instinct is to stop. However your heart and mind are stronger - the willpower of a champion comes not from what his body can achieve, but from what his mind can overcome. There is always more inside.
.

The trophies, the prize money can be gone in a second. What remains is the courage, determination and sheer willpower that helped me overcome greater challenges than I ever faced in the boxing ring.
.

As I head into my 50's I still live by the principles my fighting career taught me. The greatest prize I received is a sense of self worth that comes from within - this is your true value that can never be shaken, worth the world once you find it.
