Mindset Matters...

Michael Jordan was a star athlete from a young age, excelling in both basketball and baseball. He had always dreamed of playing in the NBA, but his journey to getting there was far from easy.

In his sophomore year of high school, Jordan was cut from the varsity basketball team. He was devastated, but instead of letting it defeat him, he used it as motivation. He spent hours upon hours practicing, determined to become a better player and make the team the next year.

Through his hard work and dedication, Jordan not only made the varsity team the following year, but he led his team to the state championship. He had proven to himself and others that he had the talent, skills, and drive to make it to the next level.

After graduating from high school, Jordan went on to play college basketball at the University of North Carolina. His talent and work ethic caught the attention of the NBA and he was drafted by the Chicago Bulls in 1984.

Jordan quickly made a name for himself in the league, becoming one of the best players of all time. He led the Bulls to six NBA championships, and was named MVP five times. He also became a global icon, known for his intense competitiveness and killer mindset.

The key to Jordan's success was his mindset. He didn't let being cut from his high school team define him, instead he used it as a driving force to achieve his goals. He had a relentless determination to be the best, and he worked tirelessly to make it happen.

Jordan's story is an inspiration to many, showing that with a strong mindset and a willingness to work hard, anything is possible. He went from being cut from his high school team to becoming one of the greatest basketball players of all time.
