The difference between having the "Want" and having the "Will" to achieve.

Everyone wants to be succesful in in life, but far less people have the will to make their wants a reality. Let's face it, wanting is easy; it requires no sacrifice or vulnerability on the part of the individual.

On the other hand, willing something to happen is a constant battle through adversity. And continually overcoming adversity is the key to success, in both basketball and life.

A few questions to ask yourself:

Do you have the will to make your dreams a reality? Are your dreams important enough to plan and sacrfice for? Do you make yourself feel good about sacrifices when you're trying to reach your goals? Do you find ways to stay inspired when the road gets tough?
