Lewis Howes
About this episode

Mexican soccer legend Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez credits his family for instilling humility and teaching him that success requires continuous improvement. Despite scoring impressive goals early on, his parents reviewed matches and focused critiques on areas needing work. Later pressures mounted playing for club Manchester United and country, but Chicharito stayed grounded remembering soccer greatness doesn't preclude being human too. He details manager Alex Ferguson making them feel like family and apologizing for not giving Chicharito more playing time. Overall, Chicharito shares how mentors kept him focused on getting better, not threatened by others' success or public criticism. His family and Ferguson modeled compassion and fostered inner security to handle scrutiny while achieving World Cup and Premier League victories.
