Champion

When you see a sports champion perform, you admire his or her skill and believe they are exceptional human beings who are able to do things that almost no one else is capable of doing. But when you see the perfection of their action you tend to forget that reaching such proficiency took great commitment, practice, self-confidence, trust, sacrifice. And, most of all, they never gave up! You, too, although you might never become an Olympic medal winner (or be awarded the Nobel Prize or an Oscar), you can still give the best of yourself and reach higher goals. Nothing really "good" is ever achieved without working at it in earnest.
