We all aspire to be great, to create something, to make a mark in this world. It looks different for all of us. For some, it would be building a multimillion business, others want to leave the generation after in a better position; or perhaps being the best parents, leading by example.

Regardless of the path one is taking, regardless of the uniqueness of each endeavour, is there something we call can do to make it?

I think there is. And there is one individual - one of many - that showed us what is possible when you use the secret sauce: Kobe Bryant.

5 times NBA champion, 2x MVP, a Hall of Famer... and now, an Oscar winner.

All achieved through an unbelievable work ethic, an unwavering focus, a commitment to continuous improvement and an incredible resilience. Skills we can all develop.

A reminder for me to be patient, keep working on my craft, believing in me and putting all of that towards adding value.
