Spirit of The Champion: Understanding Number 1 Energy
I’ve always been fascinated by those rare individuals who seem to naturally step up when others step back. You know the ones I’m talking about – the people who can’t help but stand up to bullies, who defend others without thinking twice, who seem to have an innate sense of justice coursing through their veins. It wasn’t until I delved deeper into numerology that I began to understand what drives these natural protectors: Number 1 energy.
One story that perfectly embodies this energy is that of Dr. Charlie Teo, the Australian neurosurgeon. Here’s a doctor who’s made a career out of taking on the cases other surgeons deemed “inoperable.” When other medical professionals say there’s no hope, Teo steps forward with his characteristic determination and skill. This is Number 1 energy in its purest form – the courage to stand alone, to challenge conventional wisdom, and to fight for those who’ve been told to give up.
What strikes me most about Teo’s story isn’t just his surgical brilliance – it’s his willingness to stand up against the medical establishment itself. He’s faced criticism and opposition from colleagues for his unconventional approaches and his willingness to attempt risky surgeries. But that’s exactly what Number 1 energy is about: having the courage of your convictions, especially when you’re standing alone.
I still remember the story one of my friends told me about how Dr. Teo operated on her mum who had been told by multiple surgeons that their tumor was inoperable. Other doctors had given this person weeks to live. But Teo saw possibility where others saw impossibility. That’s the champion’s spirit – seeing a way forward when everyone else has given up. The surgery was successful, and the patient went on to live for many more years. This wasn’t just about medical skill; it was about having the courage to try when others wouldn’t.
But Number 1 energy isn’t just found in high-stakes medical dramas. Consider the story of the 6888 Central Postal Directory Battalion, the all-Black, all-female unit serving during World War II. These women faced discrimination from their own country while serving it. They didn’t just clear an impossible backlog of military mail; they proved every critic wrong through sheer excellence and determination. When I think about Number 1 energy, I think about these women who didn’t need a spotlight to prove they were champions.
The thing about Number 1 energy is that it shows up in the most unexpected places. I see it in the local community organizer who works tirelessly to protect vulnerable neighborhoods. I see it in the environmental activist who stands up to big corporations despite overwhelming odds. I even see it in the quiet kid who steps in when classmates are being bullied. It’s this incredible force that compels ordinary people to do extraordinary things.
Sometimes people ask me if champions are born or made. After years of studying this energy, I’ve come to believe it’s both. The seed of Number 1 energy might be there from the start, but it needs nurturing to grow. It’s like a muscle that strengthens with use. Every time you speak up against injustice, every time you protect someone who needs help, every time you choose to stand for something bigger than yourself – you’re developing that champion’s energy.
This energy is about breaking new ground, about being the first to say “yes” when others say “no.” Dr. Teo exemplifies this through his willingness to pioneer new surgical techniques and challenge medical orthodoxy. The 6888 Battalion showed it by breaking racial and gender barriers. In each case, Number 1 energy manifests as the courage to be first, to stand alone if necessary, and to fight for what’s right.
What moves me most about Number 1 energy is its unwavering nature. It doesn’t seek popularity or consensus. When Dr. Teo faces criticism from his peers, he doesn’t back down – because Number 1 energy is about conviction, not convenience. When the 6888 faced discrimination, they didn’t give up – because Number 1 energy is about perseverance in the face of opposition.
I believe we’re living in a time that desperately needs this energy. We need more people willing to stand up, speak out, and protect others. The beautiful thing about Number 1 energy is that it’s not reserved for a chosen few – it’s available to anyone who chooses to answer its call.
As I wrap this up, I want to ask you something personal: What makes your heart beat faster with the need to protect or defend? What injustice makes you unable to stay silent? That feeling? That’s your Number 1 energy speaking to you. And maybe, just maybe, it’s time to listen.
Because in my experience, champions aren’t the ones who never feel fear – they’re the ones who feel it and stand up anyway. They’re the ones who understand that protecting others is not just a choice, but a calling. They’re the Dr. Teos of the world, who see possibility where others see impossibility. They’re the members of the 6888, who excel despite every obstacle placed in their path.
So here’s to the champions – past, present, and future. Here’s to the Number 1 energy that flows through all those who choose to protect rather than harm, to defend rather than bully, to stand up rather than stand by. In a world that often feels uncertain, these are the people who remind us what it means to be truly courageous.
And who knows? Maybe as you’re reading this, you’re feeling that energy stirring in your own heart. If so, trust it. That’s your champion spirit calling.
