A short motivational monologue (YouTube video) emphasizing personal growth and doing one's best rather than competing to be 'the best of all time.' The speaker describes a daily ritual of looking at a poster on the mirror—'the man in the glass'—and resolving to be proud of their own efforts and priorities.
Never once in my life ever said I wanted to be the best of all time. Ever. I wanted to be the best I could be, period. That's all I wanted. It didn't matter what the other guys were doing. It didn't powerful. It mattered what I was telling. I had to look in the mirror every night, and I printed out the man in the glass. You know, the big poster. I put it on my mirror in the bathroom, and I looked at it every single day. And I said, be proud of the man in the glass. Be proud of that man that wakes up every day and does the best she can do with his priorities.
