Quotes to ponder:

"The challenge with getting access to all the best gigs is that opportunities can be distractions."

"You may not notice a drop in their performance over the first year or two, but eventually it catches up. And it catches up VERY fast when it does."

"You can blow-past the elite. Just don’t lose yourself on the way up."
