When we think about excellence, whether in sports or business, one thing is clear: "Talent alone isn’t enough"
It’s training and discipline that separate the good from the truly great.
Look at the legends:
Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team, but relentless training throughout his career made him one of the greatest of all time.
Serena Williams didn’t just rely on natural talent; she spent years refining her technique and building mental resilience in order to be the best.
Cristiano Ronaldo is known for being the first to arrive at training and the last to leave. Even as one of the world’s best footballers, he still continues to commit time to train.
Kobe Bryant famously practiced from 4 a.m. because he believed extra effort set him apart.
The same applies to business icons:
Jeff Bezos started Amazon in a garage but constantly refined strategies and adapted to new challenges to build one of the world’s most valuable companies.
Oprah Winfrey turned rejection into relentless self-improvement, perfecting her storytelling craft in order to inspire millions.
Warren Buffett credits reading and learning as a daily discipline to sharpen his investment acumen.
In sales and business, there are no silver bullets.
Success is a result of:
Continuous skill development (in smaller studio setting, in larger groups, individually, in role-playing, etc).
Analyzing and improving your approach (continously reflect on your own actions).
Committing to growth, even when you’re already at the top of your game.
So, here’s a question:
What’s your training habits? Whether it’s personal development or team-focused improvement, I’d love to hear how training has impacted your journey.
