John Cena is a professional wrestler and actor who once lived in his car and cleaned toilets for a living. He is a humble celebrity and many people love him. Recently, a South African rapper released a song named John Cena, but Cena avoided suing her for making a song named after him.
Anyway, besides watching him fight and act, I love listening to his life-changing pieces of advice.
Here are his top pieces of advice about life and success.
- ‘I
have often said a man’s character is not judged after he celebrates victory but
by what he does when his back is against the wall. So no matter how great the
setback, how severe the failure, you never give up. You pick yourself up, you
brush yourself off, you push forward, you move on, you adapt, you overcome.
That is what I believe.’
- ‘Surround
yourself with wonderful people, be willing to learn, be willing to be humbled,
and good stuff will happen.’
- ‘Don’t
waste time and energy over the uncontrollable.’
- ‘To
succeed I had to believe every night that I am the best.’
- ‘I’ve
never been closed-minded to anyone’s opinion because you can learn from
everybody.’
- ‘Take
what you have and make it something great.’
- ‘No
matter what you do, be yourself, and love what you do.’
- ‘Failure
has made me who I am today. Failure gives you two choices, you stay down or you
get up.’
- ‘Always
try to do what you love. It’s always possible. It’s just a matter of
sacrifice.’
- ‘I
took risk, after risk, after risk.’
- ‘Check
for your knob, and if you can find a knob it’s your door.’
- ‘Never
give up. I have failed tens of thousands of times.’
- ‘If
you don’t learn from your mistakes, they become regrets.’
- ‘The
reason I have got to the finish line only a few times through all that failure
is because through that failure I got back up.’
- ‘The
future shows a lot of promise, but I think we should focus on the now.’
