A non-negotiable for success….
When it came to “knowing” the game of hockey, nobody came close to Wayne Gretzky.
When he was a kid, like most players his age, he loved to watch the game being played.
But there was something different about the way he watched each game….
Whenever he would tune in, he would bring a pencil and paper. While the game was being played, he’d actually trace the movement of the puck on the paper.
They say he was so obsessed with learning how the puck moved, he refused to take his eyes off the puck even once.
Obviously, that obsessiveness paid off in the end.
To this day, no other hockey player has dominated the NHL quite like he did.
His story, and many other champion’s stories, are a result of a simple recipe – one that can help anyone squeeze greatness from every 24 hours:
Great passion + great work ethic.
