I came accross this quote today while browsing through an article
Most people have the will to win, few have the will to prepare to win. --Bobby Knight

Well is it true?
True.. that if we asked, everyone will claim that they want to win. But how many really have the drive and determination to do so. At most.. in the best scenario.. 12%. What happen to the rest?
Some become too complecent, simply glad with whatever "achievement" that they have.. That still acceptable.. but majorities do simply gave up. How many really push the limit.. crossing the boundires.. turn every single stone just to achive victory, or simply whining all the way and waiting for every single opportunities to throw in the towel?
How many also who really plan, prepare the mind, and condition the physical to achieve the goal? Or how many crumble under pressure even when there are leading.. We do not need to look far, how many cases do we obseverve our athelete, player crumble under pressure while leading, some cases player simply does not know what to do next when leading.... anxiety, euphoria even before the game is over..
So now, the ball is in our hand.. Do we want to be in the majorities .. just claims wanting to be a winner or to be in the special few.. planning and striving to win.. Remember..
Most people have the will to win, few have the will to prepare to win.--Bobby Knight
