Harnessing Dark Emotions: Finding Your Kobe Killer Instinct

Kobe says that the moment everything changed for him on the court is when he realized he didn't have to run from the pain and scars he felt deep down but realized the court could be his outlet.

It is not about anyone else being in his way, it is about him being in his own way. It is about having a release and a place, a sactuary, to harness that emotion, release it and turn it into a positive.

Don't run from the pain. Embrace it. Harness it. Use it productively.

From the most beautiful pain comes the most beautiful art.

Choose to be great. Choose you will be the best version of yourself.
Hold yourself to these standards. Don't hold yourself to another's standards.

Always push higher. Let yourself feel the pain. Find the beauty in the struggle.

Thank you Kobe.
