FALL DOWN 7 TIMES, STAND UP 8 — Wrestling 11" × 17" Wall Art Poster — FREE SHIPPING

If I Were a Wrestling Coach...

I would gather my team together, point to this picture, and say:

“Take a good look at that wrestler.

He's not winning.

He's not standing on top of a podium.

Nobody's raising his hand.

He's on the mat.

And I want you to remember that.

Because everybody loves the picture of the guy with his hand raised.

But this picture?

This is where champions are made.

Every one of you is going to end up down there sometime.

You're going to get taken down.

You're going to lose a match you thought you could win.

You're going to walk off a mat disappointed in yourself.

And someday, long after wrestling is over, life is going to put you down there too.

Maybe harder than wrestling ever did.

When that happens, I want you to remember what we taught you in this room.

You don't have to feel confident.

You don't have to pretend it doesn't hurt.

You don't even have to know how everything is going to turn out.

You just have to get up.

Put your hand on the mat.

Get your knee underneath you.

And start pushing.

Because getting knocked down isn't what defines you.

What you do next does.

And if you get knocked down again?

Get up again.

And again.

And again.

Until getting back up becomes so much a part of who you are that quitting doesn't even occur to you.

That's what I want wrestling to give you.

Not an undefeated season.

Not a wall full of medals.

Something better.

I want you to leave this room knowing that no matter what life puts on top of you...

you know how to get back up.

Fall down seven times.

Stand up eight.”
