Cristiano speaking at the Dubai International Sports Conference:
“Beat the Challenges, Cristiano Way”
Some quotes:
“There are no secrets to success. I have been playing football for many years, but with each past year, my maturity is growing.
It is important to get titles, obviously as this helps your success. But there is no secret. It is simply just love what you do.
“I have been doing this for 13-14 years at the top, but you have to love it or you will not succeed. It is about a team - to help each other to reach the top.
“The ambition is part of what you are. In the last 15 years the most important word to me is passion. You must be motivated.”
“I want to play on for a few more years. It is not possible to win all the titles, but you need to be humble. I know I have achieved so much but I know that others also achieve and there are many great great players.”
“Everything is a process, only maybe 30% is football itself. Everything else is just as important. Diet, training, relaxation. I know my body 100 per cent. There are fellow athletes who do not know.
“If you want to keep the highest level, you need to do everything well. To stay excellent, you have to think about excellence. You have to do things 24 hours to help you give a better performance every time.
“Take care of yourself and learn from the best. It is very important to learn from those who can help you with areas you do not know. I am always looking to learn from those around me. Physical and mental training are equally important. Like a meal, you need all the ingredients. As an athlete you need to take care of yourself.
“I need to prepare for my next life after football. Maybe I want to star in a movie, but I must learn how to act, speak perfect English and also not to be nervous.
“If I want to achieve this, I need to go out of my comfort zone. And I always want to learn something new. Life does not stop after football.”
