That’s why I am SELF-aware

I have missed more than 
9000 shots in my career.
I’ve lost almost 300 games.
26 times I’ve been trusted
to take the game winning 
shot and missed.
I’ve failed over and over 
and over again in my life.
And that’s why I succeed.
Michael Jordan

At the risk of sounding like Donald Trump,
no one experiences the blues as I do,
or gets jerked around by the power of mind.
Likewise, no one has a drive similar to mine.

Donald used his energy to become powerful.
Michael used his will to win championships.
I do neither—I have become mindful.
Prevalence of self induces SELF-awareness.

That’s why I am SELF-aware.
