Conor McGregor recently shared a post on social media where he drew a parallel between Dana White’s inspiring message and his own days grinding to the top of the UFC. The video shared on McGregor’s social media account features White talking about the power of ‘manifestation’, something the Irishman is very familiar with.

The rise of ‘The Notorious’ saw him start from humble beginnings in Ireland and through the power of dedication, hard-work and commitment, become one of the biggest stars the world of MMA has ever seen. And the words by White highlight the fact that there is an inherent difference between people who achieve their goals and people who make excuses!

In the video shared by McGregor, White can be heard talking about the power of manifestation. The video also contains snippets of a young Conor McGregor talking about his goal of becoming the lightweight champion in the UFC and is intercut with footage of him training furiously.

White stated in the clip, “Manifesting is real, when you figure out who you are, and what you wanna do, and you devote your life to it, like a maniac, like you’re all in on this thing, and you manifest. Most of these people end up, you know, doing what they say they’re gonna do and being who they say they’re gonna become. It’s real.”

He stressed the necessity of understanding one’s identity and desires, advocating for relentless dedication akin to being consumed by a singular purpose. The UFC boss also asserted that those who wholeheartedly pursue their objectives often see them materialize.

He then revealed, “And there’s no excuses, there’s no f**king days off, there’s no not willing to grind, and everybody is against me and this didn’t happen for me because of this and that and all this whining. And p**y a** bullsh*t that a lot of people do these days…”

White ends the video by criticizing contemporary tendencies towards complaint and avoidance and extolled the virtues of individuals who immerse themselves in their objectives with clarity and resolution, by stating, “…most of those people make it.”

As such, McGregor seemed to identify with White’s message, hinting at a renewed determination to pursue his goals with relentless dedication by sharing the video on his Instagram story.
