How the NBA Superstars Do It [An Insight on the Relentless Optimization Mentality]

There are too many people in the world right now looking for the easy path. They come up with a bold idea where they say, “I’m going to get fit.” And the moment they hit the first obstacle, they wave the white flag of surrendered. But if you look at a Navy SEAL, if you look at a world-class chef, if you look at an NBA athlete. And I’ve mentored so many NBA, NFL, NHL athletes, these people are not the most gifted, they don’t have the most natural talent, they have the most persistency. They train the hardest, they have the most commitment. When they are tired, they rest. And then they get back in the game the next morning at 5AM with their training routine and their eating routine and their psychological routine and their Heartset routines and their spiritual routine. So remember that relentlessness is a lot like a muscle, and put yourself into difficult scenarios to build the muscle of persistency and consistency and relentlessness.
