How to Be a Springbok in Your Own Life:

A huge goodluck to Coach Jacques Nienaber, Siya Kolisi and the Springbok team & staff.

They have proven to everyone why they are world champs & even deserve to retain the trophy...

...from beating the hosts, who were the 2nd best team in the world, to almost beating Ireland, which was the best team in the world...

...to beating a spirited England, while playing their worst game of the tournament. Those are true champions.

But, I want to raise this:

It is unfair of us ordinary South Africans to keep demanding the Springboks to give us hope through their victories, when we don't meet them halfway.

After they've won the world cup, and the hype has died down, how will you show that you've learnt from them in your own life?

Will you work your hardest in your job?
Will you push your hardest in your business?
Will you be a world class public servant?
Will you roll your sleeves up & help to fix & build this nation?
Will you vote for the best political leaders to run this country?
Will you buy from local businesses?
Will you stop paying bribes or accepting bribes?

In the midst of the hysteria, we've forgotten to look in the mirror & ask ourselves if we actually deserve to have a team like the Springboks?

Do we deserve watching them strategize, bleed, injure themselves, be such amazing ambassadors... when we seem to not do our bit to make South Africa great?!

Regardless of which team wins the world cup, it's time you start treating yourself like a Springbok.

It's time you start working in & building world class teams.

It's time you start putting in your best efforts in your job.

It's time you start serving the public as if you're competing with the best in the world.

It's time you speak positively about this nation.

It's time you work with other races to build a champion nation.

It starts with you.. the Springboks have given us everything... now it's up to us.

Let's build a Springbok Economy
Let's build a Springbok Society
Let's vote for Springbok Politicians

Goodluck to the men in the green & gold, and thank you to everyone who has fought to build this diverse, talented, merit-based Bok team we have today.

We have the power to turn South Africa into the best country on earth... we all need to start believing that we are Springboks & put in the work to show it.
