ANECDOTE

Leaving Everything On The Court

  • Brian Cain cites Kobe Bryant's idea of leaving everything on the court as a guiding example of commitment.
  • He uses that example to show living with results when you've given your all.
ADVICE

Measure Success By Controllables

  • Measure success by controllables like effort, preparation, presence, and execution.
  • Do not outsource your confidence to outcomes; base it on your standards instead.
ADVICE

Daily Standard Check

  • Ask daily, 'Did I do what I was capable of doing to the best of my ability today?'
  • If yes, accept the result because you've executed to your standard and you win aside from the scoreboard.
