Short YouTube segment in which Mick Hunt and Les Brown discuss the idea of mastery. Mick Hunt invokes a Bruce Lee quote about focused repetition ('one kick 10,000 times') and asks participants to identify their core skill; Les Brown responds with an anecdote referencing Muhammad Ali (on getting up after being knocked down) to illustrate resilience as part of mastery.

Chapters

So as we talk about mastery, Bruce Lee once said, I fear not the man who practices over 10,000 kicks. I fear the man who practices one kick 10,000 times. And so I want you all to think, because we've been here today and Les has been speaking very powerful, what's your one kick?
All of us have had experiences in our lives when life thought it had us down and that the referee was counting Muhammad Ali. The first time he was knocked down by Joel Frazier, they asked him, why'd you get up so quickly? He said, when I looked around and saw where I was, I said to myself, a canvas is no place for a champion.
