Not Babe Ruth but Babe Didrikson Zaharias.
Born in Texas in poverty.
Decided she was going to be great in sports
She had the kind of will that makes a champion.
She asked a coach about throwing a javelin. He showed her the basic technique. She beat the American record on her first throw.
She was all American in tennis, golf, swimming softball and basketball.she was national champion and an Olympian winning two medals
She went on to break records in golf.
At the peak of her career she was diagnosed with cancer and told by her Doctor she would probably not survive the operation.
She survived and a year and a half later win the national golf championship.
Develop your mental toughness through martial arts training!
