Whether an athlete or an ordinary man, confidence allows us to achieve the unachievable. However, there are instances when individuals require additional motivation to reclaim their lost confidence. The same was valid with the Houston Astros’ third baseman Alex Bregman. He and his team needed motivation to bounce back from the series sweep and face the Texas Rangers next. And Deion Sanders’ unwavering self-belief mantra not only served as a guiding light for Bregman but also promises to be our compass in navigating the twists and turns of life’s journey.

The introduction of Sanders to MLB is not alien. Currently a college football coach, he played in the MLB for almost a decade and made records that will take extra effort to break. Because of this, he left with a significant influence on the league even after moving to the NFL. And now retired, he is bringing all that influence and energy into his coaching, which Bregman used for a brilliant display in the latest MLB game.

The message was so inspiring that the Buffaloes defeated a strong team, surprising everyone. And Bregman became the latest beneficiary from it. Notably, Sanders ahead of the first game motivated his players by saying, “Because it’s not about them. This is about us. This has nothing to do with the team that’s opposing us. This is about us.”

While focusing on the self-belief, he added, “They say I got nothing to do with the naysayers, the unbelievers, the haters, the doubters. This is about us. When we started this journey, we told you it was gonna be trying, it was gonna be tough, but you wouldn’t do it because it’s about us.” The message and its effect on the Houston Astros star was clear.

It was tough for Astros, who lost the series against the New York Yankees. During this time, words from Deion Sanders came in handy for them. They beat the Texas Rangers with a score of 13-6. The win was crucial for the Astros in the tightly contested AL West standings to keep their championship dream alive. Given that the playoffs are not far currently, this win would give them chances of finishing the group at the top which has three teams fighting for it.
