Basketball Training Workout #6

“Don’t let someone else’s opinion of you become your reality.” – Les Brown

We’ve all had coaches, parents, friends and family that have tried to give “advice” when it comes to how well you play the game and how good you could possibly be. More often than not, their opinion is no where near how we view ourselves.

Your high school coach may feel that you don’t have what it takes to play college basketball. Your parents may think you’re delusional for aiming to play professional basketball. And you know what…

Only YOU can decide who want to be in life.

It won’t magically happen. You’re going to have to put in the blood, sweat and tears training your skills and performing in games to make it happen.

So get out there and put in the work to make your goals and ambitions a reality.
