“When you win so long, so much, you forget — you think your name will win. You forget the sacrifices, the work that goes into winning.”
— Muhammad Ali

Simplified Meaning:
When someone has a lot of success for a long time, they can start to believe that just being themselves is enough to keep winning, without putting in effort. This can make them forget all the hard work and sacrifices needed to achieve those successes. Imagine a famous chef who has won many cooking contests. Over time, they might start to think they will keep winning just because of their reputation. If they stop practicing and creating new recipes, they might lose in future competitions. This idea reminds people to always remember the effort and dedication it takes to stay successful and not take their achievements for granted. No matter how successful you become, you need to keep working hard to maintain that success.
