Former WWE superstar Batista talks about his struggles while growing up

It’s a known fact that 6-time world champion Dave Batista had early struggles in his life. He was deprived of parental care as his parents got separated. He didn’t have proper clothes and shoes to wear. He was arrested for hitting two patrons at the club where he was working as bouncer. After a one-year probation, he pursued a career in bodybuilding which changed his life forever.

Through the below note, he had something to say to his fans.

“So this is my random rant of the day before I hit the sack. Been reflecting a lot cuz I’ve spent the last 10 days and nights alone. And it just seems so crazy to me that I’m in London getting ready to co star in a Marvel film! A kid from Washington DC who didn’t always have food to eat and was embarrassed to go to school because my raggedy clothes were from good will and my shoes had holes in them!! I’m not particularly talented, good looking, smart, athletic,etc.etc…But I’ve been able to entertain millions of people around the world. And i want to share some advice with anyone who wants some on how i got to do these things. And if just one person takes my advice then this novel of a tweet will be worth it. Get the f*** out of your comfort zone! Chase that dream of yours that seems unattainable and everyone else says you can’t do! Don’t half a** it! Don’t make a couple calls and wait for something to happen. Go for broke! Try out! Audition! Take classes! Get out and network! Everybody starts somewhere! Yes people will hate on you and make fun of you and take every cheap shot they can. And yes you will be rejected and laughed at! So what!! F*** people who laugh at you cuz you’ve got the b**s to sack up and pursue your dreams! Amateur wrestling, bodybuilding, pro wrestling, mma, movies – all started out for me as a daydream. And I wasn’t always successful but I never let haters or fear get in the way. I’d rather be a failure than a coward who didn’t have the heart to to pursue his dreams. Which seems to be the common factor amongst haters. So listen up people cuz I’m not preachin for my own good! You’ve only got #onelife and we’ve only got #oneworld so be a #dreamchaser and don’t take either for granted cuz tomorrow we may not have them anymore. Class dismissed. Gnite twitches!!!!!”
