John Cena’s Unique and Touching Reason for Wearing Two Watches Will Melt Your Heart

Wrestler and actor John Cena has a unique and touching reason for wearing two watches, and it will melt your heart.

Everyone wants to experience success. No one goes through life hoping to fail at everything they try. However, regardless of that desire for success, failure is most certainly a part of life. Everyone will miss the mark, stumble and fall at some point in life. So, we had better get used to it and learn how to pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and try again.

However, even those individuals most people would view as monumental successes still have moments of weakness. They still experience anxiety. They still question themselves and their abilities and wonder whether they are good enough.

In a clip posted on social media, John, during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, explains how he overcomes these times when he feels insecure about himself and his abilities. It all has to do with a couple of watches.

“This one tells time,” John says while pointing to his wristwatch. “This one tells perspective,” he says as he pulls out a pocket watch.

He goes on to explain that special messages are engraved on the watch.

“I keep it with me,” he says. “It’s got engravings on two sides. The back is something I use to feel comfortable in rooms like this, in front of people. I used to think I was not enough. I did not value self. So, on the back of this watch, it simply says, ‘Comparison is the thief of joy.’ So, I take this, and every time I feel uncomfortable or of low self-worth, I just give it a little reminder, and it reminds me that I am enough and I’m worthy of love.”

He also states how the message on the watch's other side helps keep him grounded, that he would not be where he is if not for those who love and support him in life.

A Prayer for Overcoming Doubt with Divine Assurance - Your Daily Prayer - September 19 

One morning, in my study of 1 Thessalonians, I read these words from Paul in 5:1-11, lingering over our key verse, “But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet.” As he often does, Paul reminds believers that they are soldiers in God’s army and must prepare and protect themselves for battle.
