Step Number 10: Motivation

Every so often in the game of basketball, sports, and life in general you are going to have good times and bad times. It's what we call "a part of the game". There will be games where you play really good and do everything you planned and some. There will also be games where you don't play your best and begin to intimidate yourself. I say all that to say athletes need motivation to continue to work hard just like 4.0 students need motivation to get straight A's. Some seek motivation from themselves while other's seek motivation from family, loved ones, friends, fans, etc. This video by phenomenal motivational speaker Eric Thomas is where I go to seek motivation. Although the video highlights the greatest players in the NBA today, Thomas' words can be applied to anything that you aspire to be in life. I encourage all my viewers to watch!
