It’s getting in your work every single day, when nobody is watching.by Parker on TwosIt’s getting in your work every single day, when nobody is watching.What makes them champions is the boring old habits that nobody sees. They compete to see who can be the first to get to the gym and the last to leave.The championships are almost secondary to the feeling you’ll get from waking up every morning and putting in the work. The championships are like when you were sitting in class at UConn with your shirt and tie on. They’re just the culmination.Life is about the journey, not the destination. And that journey will change you as a person.But in order to achieve your dreams, you will become a different kind of person. You’ll become a bit obsessive about your routine. This will come at a heavy cost to some of your friends and family.Most of the time, you will be alone. That won’t make you the most popular person. Some people simply won’t understand. Is the cost worth it? Only you can answer that.Go to the court. Stay at the court. Get your work in, young fella. Most people will never really get to know the real you. But they’ll know your work.https://www.theplayerstribune.com/articles/ray-allen-letter-to-my-younger-self
