Mike Tyson explains how he felt before his fights during his prime.
One of the most powerful videos I've ever seen.
I feel like this is how great commanders and warriors of the past also felt before battles.
The mixture of fear, excitement and supreme confidence.
Interesting how so many great combat athletes mention fear before fights.
This is one thing that will never go away, no matter how much people want to pretend they're fearless. It's better to just embrace it.
Like the great driver Ayrton Senna said, "Fear is exciting for me."
I have no doubt that all the great warriors of the past also felt fear before battles. Not just fear of being physically harmed or killed but also fear of losing, of seeing your army defeated, of making a crucial mistake.
It's how they dealt with this emotion that mattered.
