His mindset? The mindset of a champion:
“I just worked really freaking hard.”
Champions are built, not born.
Leaders vs. Captains.
There is a big difference.
“It is such a privilege to be named a captain, but you don’t need to be a captain to be a leader.”
How do you lead?

Kobe Bryant said, "Leadership is lonely."
"If you're going to be a leader, you're not going to please everybody. You've got to hold people accountable."
Leadership is hard.
It takes courage, character, and a willingness to serve others.
Here are the 6 Skills All Great Leaders Master:
1. Accountability - Leaders set the standard and embody the standard. Accountability means taking ownership. Success doesn't happen without accountability. Creating accountability empowers you to ensure people take ownership of their actions. It creates good conflict because it promotes responsibility and drives performance for success.
2. Connection - It starts with caring and connecting. To be an effective leader, you need to build relationships with people so you can establish trust and foster collaboration. People won't follow or listen until they know you and what you stand for.
3. Problem-Solving - Effective leadership means effective communication. Communication means what you say, how you say it, and when you say it. Your ability to pair strong relationships with effective communication drives change. It means articulating a clear vision, inspiring, and motivating others. Everyone might not like what you say, but communication becomes the bridge between confusion and clarity.
4. Adaptability - Leadership is about how you drive and deal with change within a team. People don't like change, but you have to navigate it with resilience and adaptability. It means communication and action. How you communicate and behave will either inspire change or cause people to resist. It will signal how you help your team adapt and grow.
5. Development - Great leaders develop more leaders. They focus on nurturing talent, empowering others, and creating a culture of continuous learning. It means believing in people and their potential. You have to get people to believe in what their potential can be for them and sometimes that doesn't align with where they are today.
6. Character - Character is the foundation of leadership. It’s about integrity, honesty, and doing the right thing even when it’s difficult. Leaders with strong character earn the respect of their teams because they consistently act in alignment with their values. Character isn’t just about making the right decisions—it’s about being the kind of leader who inspires others to do the same.
Takeaway: Leadership requires the courage to make tough decisions, the humility to listen, and the resilience to stand firm in your values - because true leadership isn’t about being liked, it’s about doing what’s right.
