I was feeling from the beginning that I was different than the other ones. Cristiano Ronaldo, what's the biggest key to your personal success? The discipline of Cristiano.
The disciples unbelievable. I never see this. Believe.
I think you should believe in it in everything. And of course, the rest it's it's the dedication, the hard work. Well, my my best words is dedication and hard work.
To achieve this kind of things, you need to work hard and you know be a great professional. Be serious in your job. We all have talent but talent without the work it's nothing.
I think so. Yes. In my mind, I'm always the best.
I don't care what the people thinking, what they say. In my mind, not just this year, but always I'm always the best. Cristiano, you did it again.
It's your job. It's my job. Yeah.
Do you think what makes you different to the others to the next rung on the ladder if you like of very good players is the dedication level that you put in? I think I'm good, but I think my main strength, it's my mind. Because everyone want to be Cristiano but I give you the map.
You think you will do with that? The discipline is in another level. I see professional football players and stuff like that.
But someone that been there every single day and don't stop. That's Christian. I'm my own medic, my own doctor.
I am my mental coach, my nutritionist, my doctor. If you do the right things, you're going to be better than other persons. Listen Christristiana, let's go.
Because pain, you're going to have all the time uncertainty and constant work. Constant work. Constant work.
Doesn't matter what's happen, it's going to happen in your life. You have to continue. This is the way I see the life.
Believe in your capacities. Work hard, dedicate yourself 100%. and um Jim.
So in my area, I think I'm the best. Ronaldo [Applause] in front. It's Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ronaldo [Applause] doing what Ronaldo does. No, it's got in. It's Ronaldo.
It's the big moment and it's the big man for Real Madrid. Oh no, it's better to be hit. And when he hits it, you know what happens towards Ronaldo.
Finding Cristiano Ronaldo. Ronaldo. [Applause] All of us.
Nobody's perfect. We failed too many times. We have so many uncertainty in our life that we have to be capable when we are down to stand up.
It's it's part of the journey. It's part of the process. It's part of our education.
In my case, I learn the most when I'm down. And it's good that this s certain moments happen because when you are in a top of the wave, you don't see under what's what's going on. I think uh it's my strongest point.
It's my mind. Pierce the the numbers they don't lie. If you see during the last 15 years, my my level is always kind of the same.
So effort, dedication, work hard because the talent is not enough anymore. And if you don't dedicate it 100%, you're not going to reach the level. The discipline is the most difficult thing, not only in the sport, but in the life.
I fight against that. You know, it's it's the big challenge. It's when you're not willing to do something, but you have to do it.
This is is the main point. This is why I say our mind it's it's a box of surprises and you have to challenge yourself to be consistent. Why we don't believe that we can do it better?
We have to believe. We have to be positive. We we're not going to give up.
You know the only give ups the guys who is weak mentally. You have to implant that in your mind that we have we are capable to change things. Life continue.
Past is past is never come again. The present it's the best gift that we have in our life. The present because you know you don't know that what's going to happen tomorrow.
You don't know. I don't know. You don't know.
So leave the present. You like to go to the gym every day. Of course no.
It's not true. Nobody like to go to the gym every day. But you have to do it probably.
Yes. Because your mental strength is coming from that from that moments that in a hard moments you know you should do it. When you are younger you think you can you're going to live forever.
You're going to have power forever. You think you are unbreakable. But by the age I have a great example in the football because it's the football it's the demands physically and phys and body it's a lot ourselves we we manage by memories our lives is memories so I have good I have very very good memories the best players always follow the best players they want to be in the top of the the game because they are the ones they are there you know you cannot rest or sleep because the other one can pass you.
Of course, we fight with everyone and we fight, you know, to be the best. This is why it's my my main point. It's my motivation is to be better than them than them year after year.
It's part of my sacrifice, my obsession to win, to have success. You know, when I mean when I say success, it's I worked for that. Talent is not enough.
You have to I dedicate myself so much that this is part of me. Records is part of me. I don't follow the records.
The records follow me which is is different. Are you addicted to winning? Yes, I am.
I'm addicted to the success. All package you know the first of all it's the talent helps a lot of course but of course the ethic of work you have to put in your mind ethic of work when you are professional. I'm always competitive uh player and just in the games I'm in the training I'm like that in the home with my sister with my mom with my nephews I'm always uh try to competitive hard and try to win uh I'm like that you know I'm not I'm not I'm never change because I like I like this I like what I do I like my life I'm happy person you have to do it the balance you know the life it's all about the balance uh And with the age you start to understand that the most important thing it's you know 100% your body and but I think I think I'm I'm still feel good sharp motivated because I think the main point it's the mind if you feel motivated it helps a lot.
So I still feel motivated and um I just want to carry on like that. I think the best advice I'm not the kind of guys to like to give advice is I prefer to be as example because I'm I'm a example. I'm there every morning.
I do it the same stuff. I'm probably the first ones to arrive and the last ones to to go out. I think uh the the details speak for themselves.
But everything is hard. The the the both ways is hard, right? You say to be like me maybe in your opinion the or the opinion of the old people even my friends say that I'm I'm sick to live that life for me it's not a big deal I do it in a comfortable way in a happy way my kids going to suffer your kids going to suffer because one moment of the life they're going to have pain you understand and the pain uncertainty and what they have to do it's constant work because nobody going to help them.
They're going to be themselves in a hard moment and they're going to falling down. They have to stand, cry alone, and keep going. But they have to say uh to be in my shoes is not easy.
Uh but I'm not I'm not complain. I just I just want to say that I'm feel happy. Uh all this happened because a reason the reason is I'm unbelievable inside the pitch.
This is why the people have so much interesting on me.
