We check in on some of the top superstars in MMA in this edition of MMA on Instagram including Felice Herrig, Jon Jones, Michael Chandler and Paige VanZant.
For Chandler, this is fight week as he faces Benson Henderson in a rematch Friday night for Bellator.
Felice Herrig: “Rise, shine, and sparkle.”
Jon Jones: “Ya’ll playing call of duty, I’m out here living it. Done with Grandtheft auto.”
Paige VanZant: “Keep those shades on baby, cause our future is bright.”
Conor McGregor: “Check out my event-used autographed memorabilia from #UFC246 available up for auction now at @fanaticsauthentic, check out the link in their bio to bid!”
Michael Chandler: “Thoughts as we head into a new week for you and #fightweek for me. A particular train of thought persisted in cannot fail to produce fruit, be it good or bad. – James Allen Most people would love to believe that the circumstances they encounter in life are out of their control; that they are just a wandering being on this earth at the mercy of the whims of fate and happenstance.
“I don’t believe this is true. I believe we are the summation of the thoughts we dwell on and words we speak on a day to day basis. Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think about such things.(Phil.4:8). Every moment you pour good and positive things into your mind you are getting rid of mental space for the negative and the detrimental to slip in.
“You are WHAT you are and WHERE you are because of what goes into your MIND. You and only you are in control of what you dwell on and the environment around you. Stand guard at the gate of your mind and guard it with your life. Find ways to build the mind daily. Only surround yourself with people that think the best of you and make you think the best of yourself. Everyone else is just holding you back and you know it. See you at the top!”
