What mindset is essential for dominating in sports?
The message is always to go out there and dominate. There's no let up. Once the game starts and once the practice begins, you're in that mode. Everything's a game seven. There's a difference between who you are and what you are. What I am when I step on that court is I become that. I am that killer snake. I'm stone cold, man. Because it takes dark energy to be a champion, bro. You look at Kobe Bryant. You look at Michael Jordan. You look at the greatest champions of all time. When they're in competition, bro, they look at the other guy and they're like, fuck you. I'm offended you showed the fuck up. I'm going to fucking crush you. It's a competition. My mission is to destroy you. I'm going to beat you. I'm going to let you know I beat you.
I'm going to want you to reconsider your professional life choice. But if you're lazy, man, I don't want to talk to you. I don't want to deal with you. You're going to make me feel dumber. You're going to lower my level. I don't think so. You can go over there. My response might sound a little tough, but I'd kill him. I'd bury him.
During the Shaq years, were you guys friends?
No. I'm obsessive, and I believe we need to work. He wanted to do it a different way. He thought I should play a certain way and give the ball in to him. I said, I'll give the ball in to you if you work. You don't work, you don't get the ball. He said, throw me the ball. No. Work. I never pulled any punches. Who would Shaq be if he had your work ethic? He'd be the greatest of all time. I wish he was in the gym. I would have had fucking 12 rings. Kobe said, why would I pass the ball to you when you haven't even trained properly? I used to always wonder, like, why is my man hogging the ball? He's like, yo, why would I have confidence in somebody who's getting to the gym late, who's leaving early, we losing, doesn't seem to care that we losing.
Why would I give the ball to you? And I'm like, yo, genius. You're not even executing it your own personal responsibility. My whole career is contingent upon what you do and what you don't do. Yeah, I'm taking this. It's a simple thing of math. If you want to be a great player, if you play every single day, two, three hours, every single day, over the course of a year, how much better are you getting? Most kids will play maybe an hour and a half, two days a week. It's not going to get it done. It's not going to get it done. Stone cold killer. Hard work is the prerequisite. It is the foundation. You will never find a successful person that doesn't have that as their foundation.
How do champions differentiate themselves from others?
They show up every single day. They give it everything they have. They do diligent work, which means they put in massive amounts of effort at a high level. They are consistent with that.
I have a script for when I feel inept, which is put your head down and go work more. Because when you learn how to focus and concentrate, read, understand, remember, what can you apply that to? Everything. Yeah, a lot of people know what to do, but they don't do what they know.
I know that irrespective of background, you have to work hard. Really, really fucking hard. Yeah, I remember being extremely excited, but also being extremely focused because there was a lot of... I asked whether or not I was making the right decision. And there's a lot of people that were saying I was going to be a failure. And so I remember my concentration being extremely, extremely high and not having even one day to really enjoy it or celebrate it. I was back at the gym and working extremely hard because I felt like there was just so much at stake. It's not enough to want it. It's easy to want it. Risk it. This is your season to start risking it. You know, there'll be times where you succeed and there are times that you fail.
So wasting your time doubting whether you're going to be successful or not is pointless. It is. You just put one foot in front of the other. You control what you can't control. And then you see what the outcome is. If you win, great. You're going to have to wake up the next day and do the journey over again.
