Don't confuse a defeat with failure or a victory with success. In a life of a champion there will always be some losses, just like in the life of a some looses there will be some victories. The difference is that when a champion grows with his defeat, a looser gets comfortable with his victory. In my opinion to be a champ, is not to be better than anyone, but to be able to be better than yourself, take your talent as far as you can take, and elevate your knowledge to the highest level of your existence . www.silvamtc.com 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 Não confunda derrotas com fracasso nem vitórias com sucesso. Na vida de um campeão sempre haverá algumas derrotas, assim como na vida de um perdedor sempre haverá vitórias. A diferença é que, enquanto os campeões crescem nas derrotas, os perdedores se acomodam nas vitórias,minha opinião. Ser um campeão não é ser melhor que ninguém mas conseguir ser melhor que você mesmo superar os seus limites o máximo que puder levar seu conhecimento no nível mais alto de sua existência.

The hint of a comeback intensified on Thursday after a Quebec reporter tweeted that St-Pierre would be announcing his comeback in the coming days. However, the tweet that chirped a resounding message was muffled soon after.
