Never realized that Bolt was so humble, he is the greatest sprinter ever in the history of track and field yet he is saying that he trusts everything that his coach tells him to do.
He is clearly smart too.. Most people rather learn from their own experience smart ones learn from others as well as their own experience. Usually the biggest difference between good and great is humility.
Well that's how he became the fastest ever, he listened & trusted his coaches guidance. There's no way he could have made it without the close eye of his coach. Mike Tyson Floyd Mayweather Jr.& many other great all had great coaches. It's damn near impossible for anyone to make it without the proper guidance.
Bolt is a very special man. I remember I was taking a picture of Bolt and other persons and he asked me if I do not want to take a picture with him. I was moved. I hope he lives long, healthy and happy.
Alone cannot bring success, hard work and dedication with discipline is the key to winning medals. Thomson was an ordinary athlete, Shelly was an excellent athlete that progress, Sherika is know a star and will be a force in future, but they are discipline and want to progress.
Am with you, love how the girls them hungry. Until a new crop of boys come forth Jamaica men will sink lower than a stone. The thing that concern me is , they must realise that talent.
@@harmonsalmon3313lfj yes the females have been putting work. Remember this is not the first the time they did a 3 on the medal stand remember when we got gold and 2 silver. They are no stranger to hard work. I’m happy they holding the flag up. But the men have become delusional. Personally being a for HS athlete tracks is not for the jellyfish back men who just want the hype and seasonal flings. It’s hard work. Sometimes, the pain was so intense my whole body was on fire. But after getting injured. That same work ethic carried me to upper management in a big company. Point is, these male athletes aren’t focused on the process anymore it’s, as Michael O’Hara said “mi rich” after getting sponsored and winning a few races at beginning of his career, not single him out but to use him as proxy to the many others who are very very very talented but failed to mature. Maybe another 4 years before we see the men coming forth. Without Bolt they have no one to aim at. But it begs the question why doesn’t anyone want to step up to that level?
Thank you for telling how it is usain you are absolutely right! Shame on them for being ungrateful and being disrespectful.without mills watching,observing their mistakes,helping them get better,being their thru injuries where would they be? I have always appreciated you usain not just for your preformace on the track but off the track being greatful and thankful for all who brought you here.stay blessed usain #foreverbolt⚡
Greatness takes humility! If there is no humility there is no greatness. This is what I’m getting from this. When you have humility and wisdom you will listen to those who went before you and have gain great success. Once more, they should not be disrespecting the coach and now they have been truthfully exposed. I hope that they change for real and take a turn.

I have a lot more respect for the fastest man to ever run & I’m USA 🇺🇸 all the way . The young ppl are very difficult to teach now days you see all the time now in the NBA & NFL they may all that money and still they are getting kick off the teams . I watched a video of 2 white cops trying to arrest this big Black young man they kept telling the young man what to do he just wouldn’t do it Black man kept asking” what did I do one of the cop put his gun to the back on his head and told him if he didn’t do what he said in so many words he was going to kill him he still acting dumb this when on for a few minutes then cop told him to get on the ground he got down & got back up they tasted him he was to big that didn’t work Black guy still asking what I do they tried to physically take him down they one cop yelled gun! gun! then 💥💥💥💥💥💥 the one cop who was doing all the confrontational stuff was still cussing at old boy laying on the ground he called him a damn fool this was seen The body camera young ppl y’all got to listen 👂🏾 if you’re here in America & you’re reading this learn how to safe your life by learning how how to or how not to get arrested peace ✌🏽 All the Big Man is saying is listen to learn & learn to listen
I rate this 100%. I am Barbadian and at my secondary school we had a deputy Principal who would walk around the school trying to encourage the "bad boys" to attend classes and get serious about work. so many times he would go and look for them where ever they were hiding round the school to chat with them ; not just give detention. But you see when the Principal stop chasing after students that was when u know the Principal has said and done all he could do for those wayward young boys. On the day the dep Principal left our school a former student sent a letter to be read out in front the whole school hall thanking the Principal for showing care and LOVE. The young man apologised for not listening but thanked him for the lessons because he finally understood what the Principal was trying to teach him. "So many of our young people want help but they do no know what help looks like"
That's why the world is in love with Bolt. He has the biggest heart, His level of loyalty and professionalism to the sport and country is unsurpassed. Second to none. Hats off to you Usain.
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾Sir Bolt!!! Maturity, integrity and honesty. You aren’t a good human being because you are standing up for your coach. You are a good human being because you believe in fairness, equality, honesty and you are brave enough to clear up ambiguity publicly. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 You are how God wants us to be. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thanks for speaking the truth on this wow I didn’t even know all this was taking place. Not a good thing, it’s best to be humble. They should not disrespect their coach.
@@lornabeckford5419 I Agree! A Coach such as Glen Mills, Who Is Willing To Take Time & Effort To Teach And Train An Athlete To Get The Best Effort From Them, Wow! I See These Documentaries On Other Coaches & Persons, Please Include Coach Glen Mills! Go Ahead ESPN, Fox Sports, Or TNT Sports, Send A Team To Jamacia To Interview Coach Glen Mills, As Concerning His Contributions To Track & Field?
This message should resonate across Jamaica, not just for the athletes, but every single Jamaican! Real talk Mr Usain Bolt, thanks for all you have done for Jamaica!
It’s a sad day for Jamaican men’s track team.Bolt you’re one in a million Bro.I totally understand your frustration for the disrespect.This man made all those guys better an put food on there tables.
This is a true testament. Now we know why these youngsters can’t make a transition from high school champs to represent us on a international stage. Too much ego and feel them reach and then we just forget abt them. Kill me dead O’Hara was going to be the next big thing. Poor them, old ppl say hard ears pickney go market twice
So if anyone had questions as to how Usain got to where he had gotten in track and field, he's given the answers. He stayed humble and respectful to his coach, valued the coach's expertise and genuine interest in his career and everyday life, and put them to work. Good for him!
This interview is excellent on soooo many levels. I will show this to my leaders. Don’t disrespect those who seek to help you build your professional capacity!!!
years ago someone told me that a footballer in kgn. who was very skilled. said that his coach was acting like a god in his life. i predicted that with all his skill he was going no where so said so done.big up the great men and women who listen to their coach
Such a hard conversation to have, publicly - I have even more respect for Usain than ever before. Stand up for what's right and speak your mind general. This makes me proud to be Jamaican, Usain's spirit and approach towards the sport - the discipline & honesty here.. Top drawer, Usain.
The heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night.
Joan Givens: I second this, I entertain the cost and had to drop it because of my budget nuh reddi, and to hear how much this Coach takes time amazes me.
Joan Givens, you make a really great point. You have elite athletics coaches like Mr Glen Mills who coaches star athletes to achieve their highest levels at the Olympics. And you have elite life coaches to help you achieve your goals at the highest level. But you have to be, just like Bolt said, humble and coachable. I hire some of the best and I work with some of the best. Let me know if you're interested to learn more.
As young men they should know that a coach is not only a coach, they are counselor, parents, as a matter of fact the Coach is always like the second father to you, but they must also remember to show gratitude, see one person attitude can determine their altitude, and that's is happening now, so sad Bolt you are not only a bolt in the tracks, but also in your reasoning,stay strong and keep firm my brother we give thanks for all you have done for us here in JA
Ojay Michelle, thanks for acknowledging that as a young person your generation doesn't listen. But you seem to have the insight & maturity. We need leaders like you to stand up in your action and demeanor to help impact your generation. Know that you can and do make a difference..
Warren Weir a one hit wonder..I thought he were gonna be the next 200m champion!..Jamaica superstars dem nuh have nuh discipline both Soccer and T&F!..that's why we can't go any further!..Usain a vent n yuh can't wrong him nobody a pick up what him left off..the men team weak..we gonna get more from the women than the men at this World Championship..the men team back to square one!
The men team has been weak for a while as well...Hmmm I wonder if this would have to do with a wider societal breakdown in the family unit....just thinking aloud here. We may also note Bolt got much of his grounding from a stable family unit.... If we are looking at solutions we must not stop with the effect or symptoms (disrespectful hard hears pickney) but the causes the main one which us usually disfunctional families/societies.
Usan I remember as a youngster standing in the stadium watching you leaving Jermaine Gonzales in the dust, you actually broke the 200m record at champs that year. What amazes me about you is that you’re the Same ever since, hate loosing and you learn from your mistakes. What’s funny too is most of those names that you called are people from my age group, I no them, I use to rub shoulders with them, won’t call their names because I am not here for hype, but they no I no them. The part that is funny is I thought with exposure an traveling those mentality got flung out the door. But again Bolt you’re different you’re always trying to better yourself at whatever cost, you’re no longer in track an field but you’re a business mogul, the epitome of bettering your self over a period of time. You see this is not a warren or a O’Hara or a Blake Issue this is our issue. We all act like we’re grown fail to take advice even though we don’t have a clue of what we are doing. We want to be the coach, the player and the accountant an that cannot work, and when it don’t work we go around blaming everyone but ourselves for our ills. You’re so right Bolt and I respect you for speaking up because that man like every other man is human and has faults but he’s a great man hands down; soulm optima petenda sunt, only them that bear the sour a dem ago bear the sweet. We don’t do it for the love we do it for the likes and when the likes run out we run around mad blaming the world while looking for the next thing that will bring likes.
Heric Nelson, thanks for speaking truth! I see this as not just a Jamaican societal problem. It's a human nature one. We all want to point the finger everywhere but at ourselves. And when we don't stop pointing the finger at others & take responsibility for our lives we can't progress further. We're stuck. That's what we're experiencing in this situation and in so many others. This one is a prime example.
@@LornaBlakeEmpower Yes its a wider human problem but if Jamaica is going to fix a problem happening in Jamaica you just have to forget about everybody else and take steps to deal with the problem on the ground.
@@fdmtearn9784, your point is very well taken. And I agree completely. At the same time I felt it was important to point out this out. And I believe as more Jamaicans take personal responsibility to change this we can be the Wayshowers for many people around the world.
Talk di tings Usain!! No secret keeping round here. We realize that it takes hard work to make it at the highest level. When yu nuh want good from the best yu career going to suffer. Thanks for talking the tea UB!! All who have ears let them hear!! #truthtellerUB
So true. Our lack of respect for leadership hurts our potential growth. Young and old take note. Disrespect for authority will hinder you in the long run.
Word Up. For years I've been thinking about how Tiki Barber complained that his coach worked them too hard, yet, they won the Super Bowl. Usain; you epitomize qualities of true manhood. The Silent Guide(s) have been compelled to Speak.
I am no guitarist. Saw a gentleman complaining about his guitar, saying that it was not working properly. Took it from him and played the one tune that I knew that I could play: the base section of Why Me Black Brother Why - The Mighty Diamonds. He sang it loudly and well. I returned the instrument to him. He looked at me, puzzled, took the guitar and played perfectly well. By the way, he is a far better musician than I. Sometimes we do not put the blame where it belongs.
Well said Bolt.. All the others wants to reach where you have been but want a quick fix instead of toiling and working hard. They lack patience, humility not to mention very ungrateful. I have seen where these generation has no problem in biting the hands that feed them.
Sometimes we ignore or fail completely to realize that there is a time and season for everything thats why humility and appreciation is a must....Time to run away from your coach and also time to run back to your coach and eat some humble pie. No one can do anything to us to hinder our own success we do it all with our own 2 hands.
Love this! It has been one of our downfalls for the longest while... (Get a taste of success, then lose control of ourselves and lose focus then blame everything and everyone around us for the downfalls we've had) In the midst of fame/success it's easy to get lost especially if you already had an ego problem. Full time we learnt these valuable lessons and make true progress! Much Love God Bless ❤️
Bolt, respect for your honest outlook. This applies to all walk of life, as a producer/artist/writer I visited my people and always trying to provide pay gig, but the mentally is really a factor... people think they made it before they even bust. As you said those who want greatness work for it, time is the master.
dis knowledge wah di man a spill is the very same ting why most jamaican Yutes no make it.. people with money not gonna do business wid yo if yo look like a thug, dats something i learned young and it made me into what I'm today.
The same way it goes. Dem win a big race hol a change an dem rich. That's the mentality. Soon after, dem skin change full up a blasted tattoo suh till you cyaa recognized them. Just take a look at who is making money.... I rest my case.
Same thing I say. Look at Shaq. Haven’t played basketball in years but still makes more money off the court. They don’t understand no one wants a thug to represent or be the face of their company.
Well said Usain bolt that's the reason why many of us do not make it then they are the same one who turn around blaming other for their lack of success. I respect you say no more
August 27, 2021 and Mr Usain Bolt's words are so appropriate in light of the dismal performance of the JA MEN in Tokyo Olympics. I hope the men can take their "craft of track and field" seriously and get back to the road of success. I had so much hope for Blake and Weir! Hard work and desire to be great are key ingredients to athletic success. Let's pray that they are embarrassed enough to get serious about their talents! Mr Bolt is in commercials here in the USA because of his achievements and the dignified way in which he presents himself.
Warren Weir has serious attitudinal problems. I'm NOT surprised about the negative remarks that weir has made about Glenn Mills who made it possible for him to accomplish what many athletes have not accomplished.
Love coach Mills he use to train a friend of mine and she speaks of his humility and love for his athletes. I have also seen the relationship I have seen with Usain… the utmost respect. Big up itself Coach Mills😍😍😍😍
Thank you so much for speaking out Usain. You're definitely unique with a lot of determination and will power and you're very patriotic. I am also a very patriotic Jamaican and this is part of what Is lacking in others such as Blake, Weir, Bailey-Cole to name a few. For them the mind-set is so poor it's all about money, which is a great shame. Right now Blake should take up from where you left off and would definitely be the second best in the world. We are as Jamaicans (spoken to many others) very disappointed in those athletes who feel so comfortable in disrespecting coach Mills or any others just because they have made a few dollars. What about the future? What about when they're 60?? - Do they really think this little money will last forever?? They all need to think about tomorrow as well and you're quite right it's very embarrassing. What will happen in 20/20?? when we have so much talent in the Island. The mentality that we' re rich is not very intelligent, Infact it's very ignorant. You know last year I saw a video where Warren Weir was stopped by a police officer and I could not believe the utter disrespect he showed this officer. He is supposed to be an ambassador for JA and is aware of the crime situation & yet he behaved so badly when an officer was only doing his job. He tried very hard to entice Bailey- Cole who was with him to join in, but thank God he didn't. The officer didn't know who he was and was just stopping people at random. He was trying to say to Bailey-Cole "Oh this is how they like to people with pretty fancy cars". Then he was doing these videos on a plane trying to boast to the poor people about where he was going etc;etc; My daughter and I were so upset. We saw a very ignorant, cocky and disgusting side to Warren and went off him straight away. I am therefore not surprised that he took time off in the middle of training with girlfriend to go to the US. I have probably been on 200 Aeroplanes but never feel it necessary to boast. Some of our people seem to be only interested in material possessions & brand labels & feel that what makes them important. What about self-respect, respect for others, respect for your country, respect to give back to our poor JA communities, respect for your coach. Which determined, hardworking, ambitious athlete disrespect their coach and go off to the US in the middle of it all. Who does that? I am so upset I could go on and on. If they have any courage and self worth they would go to coach Mills and beg forgiveness. I live in the UK and I can tell you that if any of the British athletes behave in that manner they would be dismissed. I am disappointed in all of these males , but particularly with Blake who could now be the ' WORLD NO ONE'. Is he not intelligent enough to see this or is he just a follower?? COME ON GUYS Coach Mills we think you're fantastic, please keep up the good work. USAIN WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH, YOU'RE THE FINEST IN MORE WAYS THAN YOU'LL EVER KNOW. Thank you for sharing you' ve done the right thing. MAY GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS YOU AND YOUR GOOD SENSE.😘😘😘❤❤
Bro I know you are hurt deep inside because usain never speak out, you have shown it over the years in which they should have replicate everything you do but no their ego get the best of them.🤔
Wow wow, that interview is straight up from the heart ❤️ and that the reason why you always going to be the greatest sprinter in the world 🌎, today tomorrow and years to comes, you still going to be Mr. Sir bolt.
That's why you are great you are very humble you listen to your coach you don't disrespect him that's what made you great All the athlete that are disrespecting the coach they are stupid .humility you have all what it takes to be a great athlete that's why you are the greatest .
Well spoken Bolt. Mr. Mills is a Legend. Never be disrespectful to anyone especially those who are there for you. The Ego is killing these youngsters. It seems like it's all about the money, no one has passion anymore. This is crazy.
If an athlete not getting the results they need from the coach, it's ok to move on. As professionals the disrespect not necessary. We mek a few cheese and get hype. Forgetting what it took to get there. Not realizing that this is the time to maintain your value so you can expand the Brand, YOU. Companies don't just invest in the talent, they pay for the brand. That's why people always say nuff talent deh a yaad but we cant understand how we nah get further with a few exceptions. From music to sports. We get a buss so we start style the camp that build you. Mi hear Capleton still big UP Ninja fi a forward in launching his career, and him big enough that he doesn't have to do that. Like Koffee seh GRATITUDE is a must !! Time now we take the ball, track, cricket... serious and maintain, especially track we need to maintain the Legacy. Yuh nuh si China start produce some decent sprinters.
@@fdmtearn9784 I was just trying to say we have more talent than most in track n Field and we want to keep the interest high in Jamaica for investors. The right attitude will maintain that Brand interest, before it's no longer attractive due to lack of professionalism.
@@trackuniverse9121 there's always two sides to a story. Do you really believe coach Mills would drop him if he was putting in the hard work like BOLT and giving 100% and being on the track like he's supposed to be during training? I'm very long-suffering, patient and kind and will help you, if you help yourself, BUT TRUST ME, I can switch quicker than you could spin your head and If I were the coach and like how I'm passionate about Jamaican track-n-field, and you didn't show up for one or two of my training sessions and wasn't looking after yourself and had a "cannot be bothered attitude because you've won two liccle medals now and t'ink you're the Big Man", I'd kick your backside to the curb and kick you out of my club because I'd say to you "do you know how many youths would love and want this opportunity and if you don't want it STOP WASTING MY TIME and yours, step aside and make room for someone else who wants it, because you clearly DON'T".
@@KayKay-l2t you are right........it is indeed good to listen to both sides of the story, I have heard everything Bolt has to say on the matter, but I also would like to hear directly from Glen Mills.
datjamaicanguy this is such a ludicrous, even sordid statement, why on earth would the coach not want to continue his legend and legacy. He clearly can’t do it with uninspired talent. This is what Mr Bolt is saying. And if you can’t understand that, then I pray you eventually will
You would think these athletes would be happy that coach has taken time out to visit them. He clearly has a holistic approach to looking after his athletes. Pity some didn’t embrace and appreciate this.
Respect Legend you have spoken. Lets see if they will start opening up their ears now. My thing is that we just have to forget about those who cant hear since this is the biggest impediment for talent development. As any HR expert will tell you we recruit attitude and develop talent. It takes a great attitude to convert skills into greatness.
Never realized that Bolt was so humble, he is the greatest sprinter ever in the history of track and field yet he is saying that he trusts everything that his coach tells him to do.
He is clearly smart too.. Most people rather learn from their own experience smart ones learn from others as well as their own experience.
Usually the biggest difference between good and great is humility.
The man is just awesome in every regards he knows where he is coming from and now he a legend
The chicken or the egg I guess
Well that's how he became the fastest ever, he listened & trusted his coaches guidance. There's no way he could have made it without the close eye of his coach. Mike Tyson Floyd Mayweather Jr.& many other great all had great coaches. It's damn near impossible for anyone to make it without the proper guidance.
There has to be trust, if not everything is lost. 🙏🇪🇨🇯🇲
Love that he is speaking out. Never bite the hand that feed you.

It's the same attitude in dancehall, all about make a food and show off on each other, they will never match your speed bolt. #greatness
I was saying the same thing about dancehall 😁😁
A true man
Fi real I was just telling someone the same thing!!
@@therealyute1764 about what
This is a true testament. Now we know why these youngsters can’t make a transition from high school champs to represent us on a international stage. Too much ego and feel them reach and then we just forget abt them. Kill me dead O’Hara was going to be the next big thing. Poor them, old ppl say hard ears pickney go market twice
Rushane Murray also he said they’re overworked and train in high school. Burnout 🤷🏾♂️
Rushane Murray Same way!
You still have Akeem Bloomfield
This was a powerful message bolt, it’s not just the sprinters, people in all industries need to listen to this message.
Nail on the head Bolt... its hard to mentor the unmentorable
Usian is a key role model for humbleness, perseverance and greatness. Complete GOAT 🐐
..and one of the major reasons why so many gun murders in Jamaica, starts with disrespect and dishonesty ...too many lack of gratitude
Man shut u stupid ass up.

Respect sir Bolt well said
J.J., UNGREATFULLNESS, is a Huge problem for SOME Jamaicans...Stay Blessed!
This interview is even more relevant in 2021.
So true where are they now
same. the yohan blake issue , the fact that there aare nooo male sprinters to take over.
Yep it now manifest our regrest of the male sprinter
Yep you could have said it an better
A laughing matter after his recent interview 😅
Usain you are a true gentleman,ON and off the tracks.
New level of respect for you Mr. Bolt. I originally had the wrong impression of you.
Yup
Same. I have to admit, I did not like his attitude; but over the years, I’ve definitely seen a whole new person. A lot of respect for Mr. Bolt
So if anyone had questions as to how Usain got to where he had gotten in track and field, he's given the answers. He stayed humble and respectful to his coach, valued the coach's expertise and genuine interest in his career and everyday life, and put them to work. Good for him!
Well said Usain, I love that you stay wise an humble.
Smh men if you now hear you will feel well spoken Bolt
This interview is excellent on soooo many levels. I will show this to my leaders. Don’t disrespect those who seek to help you build your professional capacity!!!
Exactly
years ago someone told me that a footballer in kgn. who was very skilled. said that his coach was acting like a god in his life. i predicted that with all his skill he was going no where
so said so done.big up the great men and women who listen to their coach
How the fuck you gonna disagree with the man that built the greatest sprinter of all time?
Zavian Thompson 🧐👍🏾
Love the reasoning, I think the issue with the athletes they were jealous of Glenn Mills and Usain Bolt close relationship and success
strait
Point
Preach
I hear you but according to Bolt, he tried to foster that relationship with them but they saw it as being intrusive
Mr Lex no Jamaicans
Such a hard conversation to have, publicly - I have even more respect for Usain than ever before. Stand up for what's right and speak your mind general. This makes me proud to be Jamaican, Usain's spirit and approach towards the sport - the discipline & honesty here.. Top drawer, Usain.
Wow, this hurts me deeply. Very proud of you bolt for speaking Truth. Forever blessed my brother
The heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night.
Usain you can lead a horse to the water but you cannot make him drink..😆😫😪😢😭
That's exactly what I typed before reading your post
But if the horse is thirsty you don't have to lead him he will find the water
lol very true
@@preacherpele2668 exactly
Wish I had a life coach like Mr Glen mills, wow, great man, bolt is a legend🙏🏻
Joan Givens: I second this, I entertain the cost and had to drop it because of my budget nuh reddi, and to hear how much this Coach takes time amazes me.
ohhhhhh goods
Joan Givens, you make a really great point. You have elite athletics coaches like Mr Glen Mills who coaches star athletes to achieve their highest levels at the Olympics. And you have elite life coaches to help you achieve your goals at the highest level. But you have to be, just like Bolt said, humble and coachable. I hire some of the best and I work with some of the best. Let me know if you're interested to learn more.
As young men they should know that a coach is not only a coach, they are counselor, parents, as a matter of fact the Coach is always like the second father to you, but they must also remember to show gratitude, see one person attitude can determine their altitude, and that's is happening now, so sad Bolt you are not only a bolt in the tracks, but also in your reasoning,stay strong and keep firm my brother we give thanks for all you have done for us here in JA
Athletes your attitude determines your altitude, exercise humility and respect they’re keys to true happiness.
That’s true Mt. Bolt, we as young people don’t listen even when it’s for our own good. Gwan do you thing youth
Did you make an error, and meant to say Mr. Bolt?
Mount Bolt lit though, haha!
Yeah I meant Mr Bolt
Ojay Michelle, thanks for acknowledging that as a young person your generation doesn't listen. But you seem to have the insight & maturity. We need leaders like you to stand up in your action and demeanor to help impact your generation. Know that you can and do make a difference..
Loyalty and gratitude are paramount to character.... Well spoken, Sir Bolt!
Warren Weir a one hit wonder..I thought he were gonna be the next 200m champion!..Jamaica superstars dem nuh have nuh discipline both Soccer and T&F!..that's why we can't go any further!..Usain a vent n yuh can't wrong him nobody a pick up what him left off..the men team weak..we gonna get more from the women than the men at this World Championship..the men team back to square one!
tbh, soccer/football isn't jamaica cup of tea
@@Ry-fearless96 right about that..we love it but we ain't good at it!
I thought the same thing
The men team has been weak for a while as well...Hmmm
I wonder if this would have to do with a wider societal breakdown in the family unit....just thinking aloud here.
We may also note Bolt got much of his grounding from a stable family unit....
If we are looking at solutions we must not stop with the effect or symptoms (disrespectful hard hears pickney) but the causes the main one which us usually disfunctional families/societies.
"If you don't work hard and train hard, how can you be great?"
(Bolt, 2019).
Usan I remember as a youngster standing in the stadium watching you leaving Jermaine Gonzales in the dust, you actually broke the 200m record at champs that year. What amazes me about you is that you’re the Same ever since, hate loosing and you learn from your mistakes. What’s funny too is most of those names that you called are people from my age group, I no them, I use to rub shoulders with them, won’t call their names because I am not here for hype, but they no I no them. The part that is funny is I thought with exposure an traveling those mentality got flung out the door. But again Bolt you’re different you’re always trying to better yourself at whatever cost, you’re no longer in track an field but you’re a business mogul, the epitome of bettering your self over a period of time. You see this is not a warren or a O’Hara or a Blake Issue this is our issue. We all act like we’re grown fail to take advice even though we don’t have a clue of what we are doing. We want to be the coach, the player and the accountant an that cannot work, and when it don’t work we go around blaming everyone but ourselves for our ills. You’re so right Bolt and I respect you for speaking up because that man like every other man is human and has faults but he’s a great man hands down; soulm optima petenda sunt, only them that bear the sour a dem ago bear the sweet. We don’t do it for the love we do it for the likes and when the likes run out we run around mad blaming the world while looking for the next thing that will bring likes.
so so true
Well spoken young man. 👍🏿👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Heric Nelson, thanks for speaking truth! I see this as not just a Jamaican societal problem. It's a human nature one. We all want to point the finger everywhere but at ourselves. And when we don't stop pointing the finger at others & take responsibility for our lives we can't progress further. We're stuck. That's what we're experiencing in this situation and in so many others. This one is a prime example.
@@LornaBlakeEmpower Yes its a wider human problem but if Jamaica is going to fix a problem happening in Jamaica you just have to forget about everybody else and take steps to deal with the problem on the ground.
@@fdmtearn9784, your point is very well taken. And I agree completely. At the same time I felt it was important to point out this out. And I believe as more Jamaicans take personal responsibility to change this we can be the Wayshowers for many people around the world.
Talk di tings Usain!! No secret keeping round here. We realize that it takes hard work to make it at the highest level. When yu nuh want good from the best yu career going to suffer. Thanks for talking the tea UB!! All who have ears let them hear!! #truthtellerUB
Usain Bolt learn not to hype from high school days when his dad paid him a visit at school 😂 now we proud a yuh mi G
Real fada
Angela Miller yeah his real dad
I just imagine how that went down 😂😂😂👊👊🙈🙈🙈
davianna 😂 for real wasn’t pretty
So true. Our lack of respect for leadership hurts our potential growth. Young and old take note. Disrespect for authority will hinder you in the long run.
Same attitude in the work place. This bag a hype. But remember the humblest calf suck the most milk.
RESPECT DUE TO MR MILLS
Word Up. For years I've been thinking about how Tiki Barber complained that his coach worked them too hard, yet, they won the Super Bowl. Usain; you epitomize qualities of true manhood. The Silent Guide(s) have been compelled to Speak.
I am no guitarist. Saw a gentleman complaining about his guitar, saying that it was not working properly. Took it from him and played the one tune that I knew that I could play: the base section of Why Me Black Brother Why - The Mighty Diamonds. He sang it loudly and well. I returned the instrument to him. He looked at me, puzzled, took the guitar and played perfectly well. By the way, he is a far better musician than I. Sometimes we do not put the blame where it belongs.
Well said Bolt.. All the others wants to reach where you have been but want a quick fix instead of toiling and working hard. They lack patience, humility not to mention very ungrateful. I have seen where these generation has no problem in biting the hands that feed them.
Sometimes we ignore or fail completely to realize that there is a time and season for everything thats why humility and appreciation is a must....Time to run away from your coach and also time to run back to your coach and eat some humble pie.
No one can do anything to us to hinder our own success we do it all with our own 2 hands.
Love this! It has been one of our downfalls for the longest while... (Get a taste of success, then lose control of ourselves and lose focus then blame everything and everyone around us for the downfalls we've had) In the midst of fame/success it's easy to get lost especially if you already had an ego problem. Full time we learnt these valuable lessons and make true progress! Much Love
God Bless ❤️
Word from the wise! Nothing but WISDOM coming from the mouth of the legend himself. When him speak, you listen up, young men.
Wow... he's hurt about this....
Yes! His body language and tone says it all.
Bolt because you believe in the coach...that is why you are where you are now ...THE FASTEST MAN ALIVE..👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Bolt, respect for your honest outlook. This applies to all walk of life, as a producer/artist/writer I visited my people and always trying to provide pay gig, but the mentally is really a factor... people think they made it before they even bust. As you said those who want greatness work for it, time is the master.
dis knowledge wah di man a spill is the very same ting why most jamaican Yutes no make it.. people with money not gonna do business wid yo if yo look like a thug, dats something i learned young and it made me into what I'm today.
The same way it goes. Dem win a big race hol a change an dem rich. That's the mentality. Soon after, dem skin change full up a blasted tattoo suh till you cyaa recognized them. Just take a look at who is making money.... I rest my case.
@@angelamiller2105 OMG...Well said...Preached 😇

Some people have zero respect for themselves so they cannot respect others. Love Usain even more for speaking out on this!
August 27, 2021 and Mr Usain Bolt's words are so appropriate in light of the dismal performance of the JA MEN in Tokyo Olympics. I hope the men can take their "craft of track and field" seriously and get back to the road of success. I had so much hope for Blake and Weir! Hard work and desire to be great are key ingredients to athletic success. Let's pray that they are embarrassed enough to get serious about their talents! Mr Bolt is in commercials here in the USA because of his achievements and the dignified way in which he presents himself.
FACTS!!
Respect youth!!!You always defending your coach!!!
Warren Weir has serious attitudinal problems. I'm NOT surprised about the negative remarks that weir has made about Glenn Mills who made it possible for him to accomplish what many athletes have not accomplished.
I want a girl that looks at me the way Yohan Blake is looking at Usain Bolt at 7:24
This man is a brand by himself. Thank you for the great memories. You did it best and clean...👏👏👏🐐🐐🐐.
The biggest respect to the legend. Now people understand the reason why he is at the level he is at.
🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲Only thing I have to say to usian bolt is...KEEP UP THE HARD WORK AND CONTINUE TO MAKE JAMIACA PROUD. ⚡⚡⚡⚡BOLT.🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Mi feel seh mi can listen to him all day. Him have deh hunger fi di yute dem. Bless ur heart
I love this interivew. Bolt is really the greatest. He has spoken his heart, his truth. He needs to do some coaching now that he has retired.
Thank you bolt for telling the real side there will be no one like you never
Love coach Mills he use to train a friend of mine and she speaks of his humility and love for his athletes. I have also seen the relationship I have seen with Usain… the utmost respect. Big up itself Coach Mills😍😍😍😍
Grain is arguably an exceptional human and should be a sports administrator ; He is an ambassador and is underutilized.
More people should have a similar mentality like "legend boss" yes I said it. The truth is all we need.
It's like a father and his sons. And when the "golden child" meets and exceeds his potential, jealousy sets in among the others.
🇬🇧🙋🏾♀️FACTS.....
@@trinity72gp Joseph and his coat of many colours comes to mind!
@@Pistolwhipperz Yesssss👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thank you so much for speaking out Usain. You're definitely unique with a lot of determination and will power and you're very patriotic. I am also a very patriotic Jamaican and this is part of what Is lacking in others such as Blake, Weir, Bailey-Cole to name a few.
For them the mind-set is so poor it's all about money, which is a great shame.
Right now Blake should take up from where you left off and would definitely be the second best in the world. We are as Jamaicans (spoken to many others) very disappointed in those athletes who feel so comfortable in disrespecting coach Mills or any others just because they have made a few dollars. What about the future? What about when they're 60?? - Do they really think this little money will last forever??
They all need to think about tomorrow as well and you're quite right it's very embarrassing. What will happen in 20/20?? when we have so much talent in the Island.
The mentality that we' re rich is not very intelligent, Infact it's very ignorant.
You know last year I saw a video where Warren Weir was stopped by a police officer and I could not believe the utter disrespect he showed this officer. He is supposed to be an ambassador for JA and is aware of the crime situation & yet he behaved so badly when an officer was only doing his job. He tried very hard to entice Bailey- Cole who was with him to join in, but thank God he didn't.
The officer didn't know who he was and was just stopping people at random. He was trying to say to Bailey-Cole "Oh this is how they like to people with pretty fancy cars". Then he was doing these videos on a plane trying to boast to the poor people about where he was going etc;etc; My daughter and I were so upset. We saw a very ignorant, cocky and disgusting side to Warren and went off him straight away. I am therefore not surprised that he took time off in the middle of training with girlfriend to go to the US. I have probably been on 200 Aeroplanes but never feel it necessary to boast. Some of our people seem to be only interested in material possessions & brand labels & feel that what makes them important. What about self-respect, respect for others, respect for your country, respect to give back to our poor JA communities, respect for your coach. Which determined, hardworking, ambitious athlete disrespect their coach and go off to the US in the middle of it all. Who does that? I am so upset I could go on and on. If they have any courage and self worth they would go to coach Mills and beg forgiveness. I live in the UK and I can tell you that if any of the British athletes behave in that manner they would be dismissed.
I am disappointed in all of these males , but particularly with Blake who could now be the ' WORLD NO ONE'. Is he not intelligent enough to see this or is he just a follower?? COME ON GUYS Coach Mills we think you're fantastic, please keep up the good work.
USAIN WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH, YOU'RE THE FINEST IN MORE WAYS THAN YOU'LL EVER KNOW. Thank you for sharing you' ve done the right thing. MAY GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS YOU AND YOUR GOOD SENSE.😘😘😘❤❤
Bro I know you are hurt deep inside because usain never speak out, you have shown it over the years in which they should have replicate everything you do but no their ego get the best of them.🤔
Amen, to "All" of that!! Blessings
And they all need to talk how coach talk to them like him biologically kids and they do what they want to do like some bad kids at times
Real talk Bolt!!! Humble youth!!!
One of the greatest athletes of all time and a very humble person also....a true GOAT
Yeah true words!!! Never disrespect someone that’s brought the best out of you for no real reason.... be humble always
Until we humble ourselves we will not rise to our highest potential. So true.!!!!!
Wow wow, that interview is straight up from the heart ❤️ and that the reason why you always going to be the greatest sprinter in the world 🌎, today tomorrow and years to comes, you still going to be Mr. Sir bolt.
When the legend speak, you listen.
Its very sad we Jamaicans are our own enemies.
Every day, every time! We are the best at faithfully fighting against each other.
Very very true words ! Such a damn shame .....
Jamaican people in new york and the states are so rude, mean, hateful, and ignorant. Idk why? What is the culture like that the people are this way?
Well said my brother 👏👏👏 Never burn your bridges behind you 👈
That's why you are great you are very humble you listen to your coach you don't disrespect him that's what made you great All the athlete that are disrespecting the coach they are stupid .humility you have all what it takes to be a great athlete that's why you are the greatest .
Well spoken Bolt. Mr. Mills is a Legend. Never be disrespectful to anyone especially those who are there for you. The Ego is killing these youngsters. It seems like it's all about the money, no one has passion anymore. This is crazy.
And this is why the bolt is always loaded and great
If an athlete not getting the results they need from the coach, it's ok to move on. As professionals the disrespect not necessary. We mek a few cheese and get hype. Forgetting what it took to get there. Not realizing that this is the time to maintain your value so you can expand the Brand, YOU. Companies don't just invest in the talent, they pay for the brand. That's why people always say nuff talent deh a yaad but we cant understand how we nah get further with a few exceptions.
From music to sports. We get a buss so we start style the camp that build you. Mi hear Capleton still big UP Ninja fi a forward in launching his career, and him big enough that he doesn't have to do that. Like Koffee seh GRATITUDE is a must !! Time now we take the ball, track, cricket... serious and maintain, especially track we need to maintain the Legacy. Yuh nuh si China start produce some decent sprinters.
Never mind China dem athlete dont have much melanin. Jamaicans are put in the body they are in for a reason!
@@fdmtearn9784 I was just trying to say we have more talent than most in track n Field and we want to keep the interest high in Jamaica for investors. The right attitude will maintain that Brand interest, before it's no longer attractive due to lack of professionalism.
Coach Always look out for all His runners so they just need to stop talking like they are mad people.
But according to Baily Cole Glen Mills has ditched him because he's injury pron.
they're ungrateful
@@trackuniverse9121 there's always two sides to a story. Do you really believe coach Mills would drop him if he was putting in the hard work like BOLT and giving 100% and being on the track like he's supposed to be during training?
I'm very long-suffering, patient and kind and will help you, if you help yourself, BUT TRUST ME, I can switch quicker than you could spin your head and If I were the coach and like how I'm passionate about Jamaican track-n-field, and you didn't show up for one or two of my training sessions and wasn't looking after yourself and had a "cannot be bothered attitude because you've won two liccle medals now and t'ink you're the Big Man", I'd kick your backside to the curb and kick you out of my club because I'd say to you "do you know how many youths would love and want this opportunity and if you don't want it STOP WASTING MY TIME and yours, step aside and make room for someone else who wants it, because you clearly DON'T".
@@KayKay-l2t you are right........it is indeed good to listen to both sides of the story, I have heard everything Bolt has to say on the matter, but I also would like to hear directly from Glen Mills.
datjamaicanguy this is such a ludicrous, even sordid statement, why on earth would the coach not want to continue his legend and legacy. He clearly can’t do it with uninspired talent. This is what Mr Bolt is saying. And if you can’t understand that, then I pray you eventually will
You would think these athletes would be happy that coach has taken time out to visit them. He clearly has a holistic approach to looking after his athletes. Pity some didn’t embrace and appreciate this.
Respect Legend you have spoken. Lets see if they will start opening up their ears now. My thing is that we just have to forget about those who cant hear since this is the biggest impediment for talent development.
As any HR expert will tell you we recruit attitude and develop talent.
It takes a great attitude to convert skills into greatness.
