Becks opens up about his unique formula for success.

On his superstar status:

Becks: “To be someone kids look up to is a great honor. What matters is how you carry yourself, off and on the field.”
“People always say to me, ‘Why would you place yourself in a position where you have to put pressure on yourself?’ But it’s what gives me energy.”

“I know what I’m doing,” Beckham says of his fashion style.

On what motivated his success…
Beckham credits his father with helping him harness his focus. “Even if I had a great game he’s always say, ‘You played well, but these were the mistakes you made.’ If I had a bad game, I’d hear all about that. When I was playing for Manchester United, playing something like 200 games and winning European Cup finals, he still wouldn’t let me get away with saying, ‘I’ve made it.’ So that’s one thing I have never done and never will do.”
“You’ll never play for England, because you’re too small and not strong enough,” Beckham heard these words from a soccer player at age 13, which led him to his professional career in “football.”

David was recently awarded as the Top American Sports Athlete by Teen Choice! Congratulation, Becks! Who doesn’t like Becks? I don’t know anyone.. perhaps a guy or two, they are just jealous, wouldn’t you think?
