Muhammad Ali once stated, “I hated every minute of training, but I said,

‘Don’t quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.”

Hello, I’m Mac Hammond, and this is the Winner’s Minute. Muhammad Ali understood that commitment persists in doing [things] that lack short-term results,

but provide long-term benefits. This courageous determination to find blessing, despite what you can’t see,

isn’t easy in a society that's built on the smoke-and-mirrors of the big screen.

We all too easily forget that a champion is built in the quiet moments of life.

That’s why I challenge you to enjoy today’s hard work, for it will set you up well for future reward.
