Social media today is full of unsolicited boatloads of dogmas, and notions, especially about athletes like Chris Bumstead, who isn’t immune to this. Days after CBum slanted his conception on a podcast named “Don’t be Sour” anchored by Maxx Chewning, talking about the NBA star Michael Jordan and his “Killer mindset,” who plays to win in spite of everything, he posts a picture on his Instagram account with a caption, penning down his views on the scorecard we amass in the journey of life, irrespective of our achievements. 

Chris Bumstead appeared on sundry social media platforms, accentuating his viewpoints and professing his out-of-the-box mentality for winning. Unlike Michael Jordan, who plays to win the 4x, Mr. Olympia has a persistent nature by working harder as a bodybuilder setting aside the winning and losing scenario and advancing a tunnel vision. In his recent Instagram post, he sheds light on being grateful for where he is, instead of just infinitely chasing the farther goal.

 There is a peculiar yet candor vibe that oozes out of his words when he quoted, We all have an internal and external scorecard we use to keep track of our lives.” He emphasized the word scorecard by referring to the goals and targets set for life, whether it is external targets like achieving money, fame, and success or achieving internal intangible targets like integrity, honesty, hard work, character, and so on. Forsooth, Chris is a pack of shredded physiques, a great presence of mind, and handsome looks.

The opportunities of today may never present themselves again.” Herein, Chris underscores about how it’s a privilege to pull off one’s dream.

Besides, he leaves a dent, a mark on his followers by elaborating that on this voyage he is becoming a better person while bodybuilding by ensuring that he does everything in his power to hold the Sandow trophy.
