Short excerpt from a Fortitude 365 YouTube video ("Gena A on the effort you put in today = opportunities for tomorrow") featuring Speaker A delivering a motivational message about effort and energy in sports. Speaker A emphasizes that energy and effort are assumed, and that the key difference between very good and great players is that great players sustain effort and exploit opponents when others tire.

We can coach ball screens and passing into the post and cutting and playing defense. We. We're not here to coach your energy level and your effort. That's. That's a given. Difference between a really good player and a great player is great players don't get tired. They just don't.
And what makes them great is when the good players get tired, the great player kicks their ass. That's the difference. So every day you're working on that every day.
