Motivation is one of the things absolutely necessary in order to move the world. With stories of struggles hiding at every nook and corner, it often becomes difficult for people to find the right words for motivation. Sometimes, all it takes is just a few words and some action to inspire the entire world. Without a doubt, Israel Adesanya has seemingly learned the art of motivation.
‘The Last Stylebender’ recently shared a video on his Instagram story where a speaker was talking about Tiger Woods. He narrated a story where the golf star won over the world even after starting with one of the worst shots of the day. However, Woods’ story wasn’t the only motivation he needed. Previously, he also quoted Muhammad Ali before his victory over Alex Pereira.

The speaker said, “The shot before was one of his worst shots of the day. He overshot the green. He shanked the ball. He’s totally messed up. But that mess up created one of the greatest moments in golf history. Are you following what I’m saying here? Sometimes, right before the great thing that God is going to do, it seems like everything is falling apart. But what created that great moment? It was a disaster right before it. And God works through disasters, people. He brings us through storms.”
The caption below the video reads, “You gotta go through the storm and pain to feel the sunshine again and again.” It seemed as if the UFC middleweight champion was greatly inspired by the speech.
