Giannis is a great player and role model. Sports is about putting in the work and effort to win, but also learning how to handle when life doesn’t go your way.

Love this.
Michael Jordan was once asked what he thought his best skill was. He didn’t say it was his ability to dunk from the free throw line or his scoring ability. His answer: “I was coachable. I was a sponge and aggressive to learn.” The easier you are to lead, the further you’ll go.
