Kevin Hart shares the lesson that changed his life
“I got a 585 on my SAT, they give you 400 for putting your name on the paper. I guessed A,B,A,C,A,D,A... I did ABACADABA all the way down”
“I didn’t care because there was a class trip that same day, I wanted to go. I was told that not taking my SAT seriously would prohibit me from furthering myself in life”
“When I saw all my friends get their test scores back and they were ecstatic, everybody’s going to college, I felt like the biggest idiot in the world”
“The same people I wanted to rush to go to Great Adventure with, they had taken their SAT the week before. I was the only one who didn’t prioritize so I’m the only one going to community college… I just got left behind”
“Lesson learned, any opportunity given should be taken serious from this point on because if not you can find yourself feeling just like this”
“I learned from it… now if I gotta take a test you best believe I’m studying for that”
“Being married to your true partner and having a good marriage is a superpower in life. Where it’s like you feel like every problem can be beaten because there’s two of you… If I have a problem she has a problem, if she has a problem I have a problem and we tackle it together. Knowing someone who always has your back is a superpower” -@BarstoolBigCat
Celtics Coach Joe Mazulla on Entitlement:
💯 How you do anything becomes how you do everything.
🧳 The habits you practice in one role don’t stay there. THEY TRAVEL ✈️... Entitlement on the court shows up at home. Self-centeredness in small moments becomes selfishness in big ones.
🪞 Growth doesn’t come from results. It comes from awareness.
And awareness begins when you stop asking, “How am I performing?” and start asking, “Who am I becoming?”
“Earning and deserving the confidence that you play with because of the work that you put in and then not being afraid of failure,” Steph Curry
Confidence isn’t something you feel, it’s something you earn with relentless will and practice.
Mike Leach shares a must-listen postgame message on resilience, adversity, and failure.
"Nothing is really, really, really fun unless it's hard. Nothing is really fun unless it's hard."
"We've got to embrace that things are gonna be hard. We've got to embrace to be excited when things are hard."
Successful people don't fear obstacles - they embrace them.
"You gotta embrace to be excited about it being hard and playing extremely hard."
"Even if you get way up on somebody, you want to be as hard as you possibly can because you're pushing yourself. And all of a sudden you're making great plays, you're doing things that you've never done before."
Growth requires discomfort. You have to be willing to look bad before you get better.
Then he ended with one line:
"Embrace the fact that it's hard. Never hope that it's easy."
If you only chase what's easy, you'll never become great.
Embrace the hard because that is where growth, success, and character are built.

Tom Brady: “You need coaches that push you outside your comfort zone because that’s how you grow and that’s how you develop self confidence and self esteem. They push you to deal with failure.”
Nick Saban's definition of mental toughness.
"What does it take to break you?"
Not how loud you are.
Not how talented you are.
Not how confident you look.
It’s your response when things go wrong.
What breaks you?

Adulting is realizing;
1. You will die, and most people won’t care after a while.
2. People use you until you’re no longer useful.
3. Most people secretly want you to fail.
4. One day you’ll wish you started today.
5. Most people fake happiness while dying inside.
6. No one is coming to save you.
7. You’ll be judged no matter what you do.
8. Your health is your greatest wealth.
9. Happiness is temporary—discipline is permanent.
10. Success takes longer than you think.
11. No one respects weakness, even if they sympathize.
12. Complaining changes nothing.
13. Not everyone you love will love you back.
14. Money won’t solve all your problems—but it solves most.
15. Social media lies to you every day.
16. You’re replaceable at your job.
17. Life is unfair—get used to it.
18. One day, you’ll run out of days.
19. Regret hurts more than failure.
20. Nobody cares about your excuses. Work harder
The earlier you understand this, the better and easier your life gets.
