A short YouTube motivational talk (speaker: Jimmy Fung) arguing that LeBron James' persistent investment in his health and training explains his long-term dominance. The speaker generalizes this to business: top entrepreneurs invest heavily in education, mentorships, and skills development (often large sums) and see outsized returns. The clip ends with a direct challenge: are you investing in yourself?
What can LeBron James teach us about making money online? If you look at LeBron's career, you realize that he's different from every single superstar in NBA history. He's been the best player for almost two decades and he's only gotten better with time. So what does LeBron James do the others don't? He invests millions of dollars every single year into his health and training. And even at the top of his game, he's constantly searching for ways to be better than his competitors. And the same principles apply in the business world. All the people that you see at the pinnacle of business, even the ones who bootstrap their way to success, they invest in mentorships, educations, and they focus on developing their skills. For years, some of them have invested hundreds of thousands of dollars, some even millions of dollars improving their skills. And every penny they invested has come back to them 10 times over. So let me ask you, are you investing in yourself.
