1. Mindset trumps age
Three words: LeBron Raymone James
35 years old and still dominating the league
- 17 years in the NBA
- 9 Finals Appearances {could be 10 soon}
- An MVP candidate this year
Is that normal at his age?
NO
His mentality is the key

2. There's no substitute for fundamentals and hard work
What does talent look like?
Hitting the game-winner in a clutch situation
What does hard work look like?
Showing up in the clutch time and time again
Talent helps for A time
Hard work helps for THE time

3. Competence needs confidence
Sports pundits & fans bashed PG and Kawhi for their performances
Combined 10 for 38
Looks like failure right?
I see confidence
They didn't go a combined 0 for 2
They missed and kept shooting
That's why they're stars

4. Your environment matters
JIMMY BUTLER
Seen as a toxic player in the locker room in Philly
He comes to Miami and he shines
So what happened?
The culture shift
Miami's full of underdogs with intensity and something to prove like him
Make sure your environment fits

5. There's an opportunity in every situation
Again, JIMMY BUTLER
Signed $142 million deal to start the season
Sold coffees for $20 a cup in the bubble
Low supply, high demand = perfect opportunity
Do market research and capitalize

6. No social before success
After the game, I hopped on Twitter to look at what was trending
- Memes clowning the Clippers
From:
People going hard trying to find the perfect meme
Going harder for their tweets than their dreams
Don't be them

7. Continuation is NOT absolute
Rockets won the first game against the Lakers
Lost the next 4
Harden played great in some games, then lost it in games that followed
Your trends won't last forever
But hard work & diversification will make you consistent

8. Value consistency, not hype
KAWHI LEONARD
- Greatest player in the league
- LeBron's worst nightmare
- Best two-way player
Folks who said that are now backpedaling
Consistency is the way to avoid the highs and lows of hype

9. Stop broadcasting that talk
Social media fingers are great
But gameplay is a whole different story
Several members of the clippers were talking loud on IG
Only to choke in the limelight
Now they're getting clowned
Let your results speak for themselves

10. It's not fatal, shake it off
Clippers performed terribly
Kawhi and Paul George played terribly
But you know what?
They lace it back up next season
That's life
You get knocked down, you learn, you overcome
Failures are designed to strengthen, not kill
