Patrick Mahomes, the electrifying star quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs, has made a name for himself as one of the NFL’s brightest stars. Since being drafted in 2017, he has led the team to multiple playoff appearances, including three Super Bowl victories, and has earned accolades like the league MVP. His ability to make jaw-dropping plays and his charismatic personality have made him a fan favorite, but with that fame comes intense scrutiny.
Amidst the pressures of being a superstar, Mahomes has developed a concept he refers to as his “box”, as he describer in an interview with Sports Illustrated. This box represents a mental space that helps him stay grounded and focused, shielding him from the chaos that often accompanies his status. “As I’ve gotten more fame,” Mahomes explains, “I just stay within that box.” This approach allows him to maintain a sense of normalcy in his life, even when the spotlight is glaring.
Inside this box, Mahomes has created a routine that prioritizes his well-being and performance. He arrives at the Chiefs’ facility before sunrise, dedicating his days to recovery, practice, and studying game film.
After his workday, he returns home to his family, where he can unwind and be himself. This structure is vital, especially during challenging times, like when he recently dealt with an ankle injury that raised concerns about his performance and the team’s success.

The box has been instrumental in helping Mahomes navigate difficult moments. It provides a refuge where he can filter out distractions and focus on what truly matters. In the face of injuries and media scrutiny, he relies on the relationships built within this space-friends and family who support him and remind him of his true self. “I can just be Patrick Mahomes, or who I believe Patrick Mahomes is,” he shares, emphasizing the importance of authenticity in his life.
By staying within his box, Mahomes not only manages the pressures of fame but also cultivates resilience. It enables him to tackle challenges head-on while remaining true to his values and priorities. As he continues to lead the Chiefs in their pursuit of greatness, this mental framework serves as a powerful tool, allowing him to thrive both on and off the field.

OnlyFans influencer Ava Louise, who went viral for licking an airplane bathroom toilet seat as part of a “Coronavirus Challenge,” is once again going viral over what a New York Giants player allegedly had her do this week.
The New York Giants played host to the New Orleans Saints at Metlife Stadium, and Louise was in the stands for the big contest.
She did not pay to get in, as she claims one of the players on the home team had her come out.
Louise was allegedly given tickets from an anonymous player on the Giants just so she could flash the New Orleans Saints and distract them.
She even posted the messages without revealing who the player was.
“Hey sexy, got those two free tickets to the game if you do me a solid and flash the Saints to distract them,” the anonymous NFL player allegedly said to Ava Louise.
