Effort and Work Ethic
I find it almost funny sometimes that athletes think they can put in work 1-2 days a week and be great. Sure, there are some natural athletes with God given talent that were born to throw 98mph.

Not all days are easy and it’s the days that are tough, the ones you have to grind through, that reveal what type of athlete you are.
