"Grant [Hill] has an incredible set of values, as strong as anyone's. Those values have really helped him, but they have also been a weakness at times. He has rationalized and deferred at times, especially early on in his career." - Mike Krzyzewski
How heavily does the fear of incapability strangle and weigh down our potential? Yes, we are less capable now than our future selves, and perhaps less capable than those around us - at the moment. But who will outwork you, if you decide not to be outworked? And who can succeed over you for long, once you have committed to that decision? Not many, would be my guess. Deferring the load to someone else means that you'll never be any more able to carry it yourself than you are right now. Why settle?
