“Obsession always beats talent – always.” This line from Hustle isn’t just movie dialogue – it’s a truth written in the sweat and sacrifice of every great player who’s touched the hardwood.
The path to greatness demands selfishness. Your friends might be partying, but the gym calls. Your body might beg for rest, but champions push through. Every meal, every hour of sleep, every spare moment becomes about the game. No one – not parents, coaches, or friends – can want it more than you do.
Remember: Kobe once said, “Those times when you get up early and you work hard, those times when you stay up late and you work hard, those times when you don’t feel like working, you’re too tired, you don’t want to push yourself, but you do it anyway – that is actually the dream.”
Your obsession is your superpower. Use it.
