I know quite a few successful professional athletes, but many more who would be considered ‘lazy, wasted talent’ or ‘never was’ by many posters.
Regardless if of how they appear on the ice, field or court, what they had to do to get to their ceiling is quite incredible. Their ‘lack of effort to succeed, or being lazy’ doesn’t even register in comparison to an average person.
Those who actually ‘stick’ in pro sports are so off the charts driven, it’s almost incomprehensible.
