Inspiring Conor McGregor Story

Less than 10 years ago, Conor McGregor was homeless. 

While homeless he met a woman named Dee Devlin. She took him off the streets, moved Conor into her tiny apartment and fed him daily.

All she ever asked was that he worked hard and believed in himself. She struggled to buy expensive, healthy food so Conor could train and stay focused...but she stuck by him.

Only 6 years ago, Conor was undergoing a plumbing apprenticeship program and collected 188 euros as social welfare payments each week. 

Last Saturday night, Dee sat in the attendance to once again support her man while he made over 100 MILLION dollars to add to his successful new life.

Moral of the McGregor story - Believe in yourself and find people to surround yourself with who believe in you as well. Life is too short to keep your circle full of people who will watch you fail.

Don't EVER let your circumstances or people hold you down. Get out there and take what's yours. Own It.  No Excuses.
