“You never want to compete with somebody who’s obsessed.”

Adam Karr:

Try to think about your obsessions. You never want to compete with somebody who’s obsessed. Kobe Bryant. He would say, “What’s your 4:00 AM?” He’s at the gym at 4:00 AM shooting baskets. Are you at the gym at 4:00 AM? Because if you’re not, you’re competing against that guy who is. He took up tap dancing because he wanted to strengthen his ankles so he could be a better basketball player. Are you obsessed to that degree that you’re going to undertake those kinds of actions? If you consistently do that over time and that compounds, you set yourself up to play to your obsessions.
