Summary

This quote highlights the difference between an ordinary competitor and a true champion. While the desire to win is inherent in everyone, a champion possesses an additional motivation that goes beyond merely achieving victory. It suggests that champions possess a unique mindset, driven by a deeper purpose and passion for their activity. This extra motivation is what sets them apart and fuels their dedication, resilience, and willingness to push beyond their limits. Ultimately, it is this attitude that allows champions to consistently perform at their best and inspire others around them.
