This is a short monologue (YouTube video) about the difficulty not only of reaching world-class status but of sustaining it over years or a career. The speaker cites examples—Mick Jagger, Shakespeare, Apple, Starbucks, Michael Jordan—to illustrate how rare long-term icons are and emphasizes ‘sustainability’ of championship status.

Getting to world class performance is not easy. But the real game of the icons is sustaining world class performance. Very hard to be world champion, very hard to be biw, best in world. Even harder to stay there for years or a decade, a career. That's what makes an icon.
And that's why there's so few Mick Jaggers, there's so few Shakespeare's, there's so few apples, so few Starbucks.
There'S so few Jordans.
Sustainability, It's a really important word. How can I sustain.
My championship title?
