Character Traits of a Champion: Desire

A vital trait of a Champion is Desire. Desire can be defined as an intense wish, generally repeated or enduring, for something that is at the moment beyond reach but may be attainable at some future time. A Champion knows that the best things in life do not come from instant gratification, but are obtained in the pursuit of a lofty and in some minds, an unattainable goal.
Champions use their desire to plan and obtain their goals. @DaveRamsey has said, "Children do what feels good. Adults make a plan and follow it." In the Champion context we could say, "Most people do what feels good.  Champions have a desire for something greater then themselves, make a plan, and pursue that goal with all their hearts."
"Champions are made from something they have deep inside them -- 
a desire, a dream, a vision."

Muhammad Ali
