People don't understand that you can be the BEST athlete in the world and not have worked any harder than the 10,000th athlete in the world.

Especially at the elite level, genetics matters a lot more than hard work. Personality, too, which also is about 50% heritable. In other words, I could’ve worked ten times harder than Michael Jordan and I still wouldn’t have ever been able to play basketball even 1/10 as well as he does.

Just because people hate it doesn’t make it false.
