Elite Athlete = Elite Entrepreneur
I think a lot of people like the identity of being a founder, an entrepreneur, a builder. But they don’t always treat it with the seriousness of someone who performs for a living.
Elite athletes organise their entire life around performance.
One part of Kobe’s legacy is that training was not the only work.
Recovery was work. Watching tape was work. Protecting his standard was work.
Elite athletes do not just train hard. They design their whole life around performance.
Without this, there’s no chance we’d be where we are today.
If you want to build something great, you need to do the same.
