More quotes by Georges St-Pierre
When you prepare a list of improvements and you make them small and achievable, you won't just stick to then, you'll increase the chances that you'll keep moving forward.
Georges St-Pierre
I'm a shy guy... I don't enjoy being bothered but I never say no to a fan. I say yes to everybody... even though sometimes you have some days where you don't feel like it, but it's your duty as athlete to do it. Because the fans that pay it's going to make you live, so you have to do it. So I force myself to do it all the time.
Georges St-Pierre
I will never take the fact that I am Welterweight Champion for granted. I learnt my mistake in the past. No matter how great, no matter how people tell me how great I am, I'm always one mistake away from losing everything.
Georges St-Pierre
Innovation is very important to me, especially professionally. The alternative, standing pat, leads to complacency, rigidity and eventually failure.
Georges St-Pierre
I'm not impressed by your performance.
Georges St-Pierre
To fight a bigger guy you need to train with bigger guys and it takes a lot more on your body. And it's not your weight class.
Georges St-Pierre
It's easy to talk, it's harder to fight.
Georges St-Pierre
Fights aren't won in the octagon, they're won in the months leading up to them, in a near-empty gym, in the lost hours of a day, whether I feel like it or not.
Georges St-Pierre
In fighting, in evolution, in life, efficiency is the key.
Georges St-Pierre
I'm so busy during my everyday, when I go on vacation I need to pull the plug like they say, and to do nothing.
Georges St-Pierre
People have mistaken my break, I took a break from competition, it was because of mental problems, and because I was not agreeing with Performance Enhancing Drugs. I put the things on pause for a while, but I didn't retire.
Georges St-Pierre
Make sure your approach is consistent and steady so that you can maintain the progress you're making as your journey continues.
Georges St-Pierre
Nothing really frustrates me to the point of hatred. It's not the worth the energy.
Georges St-Pierre
My fear delivered one of the great lessons of my life: That someone without fear can’t push himself. He can’t get better. He can’t transform negatives into positives. He can’t open his world to creativity and invention, or even progress.
Georges St-Pierre
Everyone in life faces obstacles. That's what made me who I am. I don't regret to have been bullied because probably if I would not have faced those obstacles I would not have been the man that I am. It make my stronger in a way and it helped me to forge the person that I am right now.
Georges St-Pierre
Respect is the most important thing. Be respectful toward others and have respect for yourself.
Georges St-Pierre
I am a public person and I have my private life. It's important for me that my private life stay private, that what I share with the people is my public personality.
Georges St-Pierre
I don't want things that I regret in life, and things that I have not done - and I don't want to at 80 years wake up, and tell myself: 'Oh I was on top of my shape and skills and I didn't do it.'
Georges St-Pierre
If you look good, you feel good, and if you feel good, you do good.
Georges St-Pierre
Once I got over my anger and rage from childhood, once I stopped feeling like a victim, I was able to open myself to great sources of learning.
Georges St-Pierre
