#2 - Kobe Bryant: The Mamba Mentality

The lessons I learned from reading The Mamba Mentality by Kobe Bryant:

00:00 Introduction
02:30 Earnestly seek improvement and ask for advice from others who have already achieved what you're striving for. More people are more willing to share their knowledge than you might realize.
07:35 When most people think it’s time for bed, the great ones think it’s time to get ahead of the competition.
11:33 Belief precedes greatness.
15:13 If you want success that is celebrated, you must be dedicated to the uncelebrated work required to achieve that success.
16:11 Don’t admire someone’s success without also admiring the adversity overcome to reach that success.
19:57 Obsession is a prerequisite for greatness. If you’re unwilling to obsess over your endeavor, maybe greatness isn’t for you, and that’s okay.
20:45 The pursuit of greatness requires obsession, which demands sacrifices from both you and your loved ones.
32:44 Leadership has a price.
36:58 It takes everything to be great.
