What Drove Kobe Bryant Towards Greatness? (026)

Prioritizing growth over outcomes. Prioritizing what is 100% within your control.

Wait, Kobe Bryant doesn’t love to win?

Kobe also wasn’t motivated by hating to lose…

Then what drove Kobe Bryant towards greatness?

Kobe said he was driven to learn something. A world-class level of curiosity.

I recently read… “What Drives Winning Teams” by Brett Ledbetter. He uses examples from a range of professionals and brings lessons to positively impact teams.

The Kobe Bryant lesson is too good to pass up…

World-class curiosity is a superpower… Instead of being driven by fear of failure, he was driven by getting super curious, discovering a solution, and learning something. The only way to fail was to not progress, to not take steps forward.

This is a daily deposit… Focus on iteration/improvement being your daily deposits towards becoming more curious. Instead of only fear being the motivator. That small perspective shift can let you shed fear and make long-term investments in what matters.

Prioritizing growth over outcomes. Prioritizing what is 100% within your control.
