“You have to make a choice.” — Kobe Bryant | Note 543

What matters the most to you in life right now?

 
To describe Kobe Bryant as ambitious may be an understatement. The late great superstar taught us how to endure and conquer. One of the greatest basketball players in NBA history showed us what it meant to work hard and never quit.
 
He once said, “there’s a choice that we have to make as people — as individuals. If you want to be great at something, that’s a choice that you have too. We all can be masters at our craft. But you have to make a choice. And what I mean by that is there are inherent sacrifices that come along with it. I had a purpose. I wanted to be one of the best basketball players to ever play, and anything else that was outside of that lane, I didn’t have time. So everything I saw, whether it was TV shows, whether it was books I read, people I talked to, everything was done to try to learn how to become a better basketball player, everything. So when you have that point of view, literally the world becomes your library.”
 
What things do you want to accomplish in your life?
 
Whether or not you can answer that question, it all starts with your choices. You have to make a choice.
