Brady further went on to talk about how children watch so many talented people on social media thinking talent is inborn. But it is not the case. He said, “We’re not born like that. This is from someone who played 23 years. I worked every single day, 365 days a year to be the best that I could be. Not to be the best. But to be the best I could be.”

Brady always believed in himself and put in the effort

Right from the start of his high-school days, Tom Brady had a fair idea of his strengths and weaknesses. He would spend hours dedicating his time to training to improve himself in every aspect possible. He was a backup QB during his college days at Michigan. But despite that, Brady went on to spend countless hours studying film and practicing without much playing time. He got his opportunity when he was a starter in his last college season and led them to an Orange Bowl victory. Even after making his debut in the NFL, Brady continued his disciplined approach, which led him and the New England Patriots to six Lombardi trophies. And his dedication was not just limited to the field, as he also worked relentlessly, taking care of his diet and physical health off the field and staying in top shape.
