What we like

• The Cup of Life was the official song at the 1998 FIFA World Cup in France igniting excitement and passion for the sport

Mind experience

• When we choose to go after a goal we are often times challenged. Within that challenge we are given hurdles to overcome to test whether we actually really want what we claim we want. When we push forward we show that we are determined to reach out and do what we need to do to get to our goal. Often times the most struggle we have is within ourselves. The inner fight with ourselves. Once you finally work through this you move past this struggle which reveals a path which is illuminated by your commitment

To think about

• If you really want it.
  Just steal your destiny.
  Right from the hands of fate.
  Reach for the cup of life.
  ‘Cause your name is on it.
  Do you really want it… (YEAH)
  Do you really want it… (YEAH)
