find something equal the game of basketball for me. They talk about guys being competitors

he was the fiercest of all the competitors. I thought Jesus works seven days a week or

six days he rest on Sunday didn't he? Well Michael Jordan played on Sunday. An assassin

personified that had that killer instinct. I'm not sure people really know how good

this guy is. Michael Jordan at his best there's very few people on this planet that can do

this. For me Michael Jordan was he was a killer. It didn't matter he wanted to come in and

kill you. What motivates me is the unknown. No one knows. They can all speculate but no

one really knows and myself I didn't know. But that I didn't let that stop me. You

know and I let that motivate me more so than anything that you know as long as it is unknown,

that means I have a chance. And that's the way I pursued my whole career. No matter what

the game is, or who you're playing against, you have to want the ball. The clock, the

pressure, block all that out. All you think about is what you have to do to win. That's

why I love the end of the game because it comes down to that one moment when it's

all in my hand. Good morning ladies and gentlemen welcome to flight twenty three. I don't

always have to hit the last shot, but I do have to walk away knowing that I did everything

I could to win the game. when you step on the floor it doesn't matter how many times

you've done it before. All that matters is that you do it now. Those are the moments

you put in the hours of practice for. Those are the ones you never forget. I never feared

about my skills you know because I put in the work. Work ethic eliminates fear. So if

you put forth the work, then what are you fearing? You know what you're capable of

doing, what you're not. I've never been afraid, I mean obviously you're nervous.

But afraid means you're not confident in your skills. I have total confidence in my

skills so I'm not afraid. Be true to the game because the game will be true to you.

If you shortcut the game, then the game's gonna shortcut you. If you put forth the effort,

good things will be bestowed upon you. That's truly about the game and in some ways that's

about life too.
