You might not follow professional wrestling or sports entertainment but you certainly must have heard about the legend of 'the Undertaker' aka Mark Calaway from WWF/WWE.
He is probably the greatest creation of Vince McMahon (Chairman of WWE). Not only that, he was the locker room leader for 3 generations at the WWE.
This year he was inducted into the prestigious WWE Hall of Fame, Class of 2022 for his enormous contribution in sports entertainment.
During his speech, he broke his character for the first time in 32 years on WWE television and told us about the story of Mark Calaway.
The three key takeaways from his speech were -
1. Perception is Reality - How others perceive you is reality, so your actions matter.
2. Loyalty and Respect go a long way - When you are loyal to the things you love and the place you work for, you will go a long way. People should be respected, whether it is the chairman or the local security guard.
3. Never be Content - Know your value, keep on improving. Keep knocking doors, keep on hustling and never be content with yourself.
and last but not the least, 'Never Say Never'.
