I'm telling you, don't give up.
Play till the clock goes out.
And if you lose, at least you can say you went down fighting.
Don't complain.
Don't murmur.
Don't talk negative.
Average people talk normal.
Average people use their time to whine and complain.
Average people talk problem.
The greats talk solutions.
I'm taking ownership.
Michael Jordan, when he was a kid, dreamed about making the last shot.
Kobe dreamed about making the last shot.
And the greats, they just don't put up the first, the second, the third.
But what I've learned about the greats is that they understand it's a sense of urgency that once the clock goes out, it's a W or an L. There is no middle ground.
You either win or you lose.
It's a different mentality.
And the greats are the greats because they have a different mentality.
The greats don't play for themselves.
The greats understand that they play as a team.
