Champions don’t compete with each other, they compete for each other. You want to be great? Start by celebrating the guy next to you. Real teammates don’t envy success — they ignite it. Be the kind of teammate who fuels greatness, not fears it.

Tom Brady said it best: “You don’t have to be special. You just have to be what most people aren’t: consistent, determined, and willing to work for it.” That’s the real separator. Not talent. Not hype. Just relentless effort.

Most people stop when it gets hard. Champions start there. You don’t maintain greatness.  You attack it—daily. Don’t ever peak - keep climbing.
