Hard Work Overcomes Obstacles

The difference between those who succeed and those who don’t isn’t talent—it’s effort.

The difference between those who succeed and those who don’t isn’t talent—it’s effort. Many players have faced challenges but refused to let them define their future. If you want to level up your game, you need to put in the work—day in and day out.

Forming Your Plan:

Set a daily goal. How many shots will you make? How much ball-handling will you do?

Track your progress. Improvement comes from consistency.

Challenge yourself. Growth happens when you push past your limits.
