Money was never the motivation. It never should be in sports. — © Katarina Witt
Money was never the motivation. It never should be in sports.
Motivation remains key to the marathon: the motivation to begin; the motivation to continue; the motivation never to quit.
I never cared about money because I never needed money, you know what I mean? When I was 12 to 17 I never saw any of the money, so the money never motivated me.
I could never be a sports writer, unless my assignment was to write 'sports sports sports sports sports' for three pages.
I don't aim for money. Money never has or will be my motivation. I
I've been approached to do reality shows, but even though the fees are very, very attractive, I always say no because money should never be your motivation.
I never cared about money. When I was at school, I never wanted a car. I was focused on sports, studies, camping, being outdoors.
Money has never been a motivation.
I'd never bought the idea that you don't lose money by underestimating the intelligence of the audience. Although perhaps I should add that I've never really made that much money.
If you offer athletes stipends, then you're into pay-for-play, and that's the ballgame. People should realize that, and they should realize that amateurism never has been a sustainable model for a sports-entertainment industry. It wasn't in tennis. It wasn't in the Olympics. And it's not in big-time college sports.
My money thing, I never wanted to have my motivation to be money, that's not why I got into this sport, I got into it to be a world champion.
If your motivation for acquiring money or success comes from a non-supportive root such as fear, anger or the need to 'prove' yourself, your money will never bring you happiness.
One should live between extravagance and meanness. Don't save money by starving your mind. It is false economy never to take a holiday, or never to spend money for an evening's amusement or for a useful book.
I never struggle for motivation, that's for sure. Motivation is something that burns within.
Never let anyone tell you sports doesn't matter. Never let them tell you it's all about the wins, the losses and the stats. Sports is so much more than that.
Money was never a big motivation for me, except as a way to keep score. The real excitement is playing the game.
Motivation is not hard at all because it's such a fun job and everything about it is so exciting so you never really lose motivation.
