#3 Mental strength
Physical decline is inevitable with time. Yet Cristiano's hunger is insatiable. He is extremely focused on football and towards his own body. His unbending will and desire will make it hard to give up easily.
Besides the fact that Cristiano will not give up, he is always dedicated and motivated to compete with the best. These traits only add to his mental strength and make his will unmatched in the modern era.
For instance, despite struggling initially to help Real Madrid when he arrived, he stopped at nothing till he became a champion in club football's toughest competition and made history by winning the UEFA Champions League three times in a row and four times in five seasons among other major accolades.
Cristiano's mental strength is one of the pivotal reasons why even his naysayers won't bet against him. We are all familiar with the fact that momentarily failures are not enough to stop Cristiano from achieving his goals and he will stop at nothing to until he fulfils his dream.
