Talent doesn't separate them. This does.

Nobody talks about why talented people actually fall apart. It's not skill. Antonio Brown had the talent. Paige Bueckers had the talent too. One came back from injury and played like nothing happened. One imploded in front of everyone. The difference wasn't ability. It was what they did with the quiet months nobody was watching. And the weird part is, that's the same gap between you and the person you keep comparing yourself to. You're not lazy. You're scared of finding out your effort still won't be enough. Admit that part first. Everything else gets easier after that.
