Kobe Tap Danced: Putting In The Work

Recently on a trip I found myself in a Barnes and Noble. And I picked up a book called The Mamba Mentality by Kobe Bryant. Several parts of the book were intriguing, but one part in particular I needed to re-read a couple times. Kobe Bryant, five time NBA champion, mentioned that his legs were very weak in his first season in the NBA. At one point he air-balled multiple shots against the Utah Jazz in the Playoffs. So he decided to take up tap dancing to strengthen his legs and improve his timing. The result? He had one of the most successful and long careers in NBA history. What are your weak legs? What are your air balls? What I like about Kobe in this situation as he saw his weakness and then he learned how to improve it and then he took action. It takes a humble person to see their weaknesses and then go to work to make them strengths. And where did Kobe find the time? What about the embarrassment? Couldn’t he have just chosen an easier, less effective approach? The best put in the work. Are you ready to work for a better marriage? Are you ready to tap dance your way into a better marriage? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thriving-twogether/support
