Quote of the Week – Derek Jeter

“There may be people that have more talent than you, but there’s no excuse for anyone to work harder than you do.” – Derek Jeter

There are 24 hours in a day, no more and no less.  Whether you are a professional athlete, entrepreneur, or a school teacher, we each receive the same amount of time. Whether you choose to use this time to go after your goals is up to you.  While it’s true that “all men are created equal” in the sight of God, it doesn’t mean we all receive the same amount of talent.  Some of us have to work harder than others to achieve the same amount or more success.

Talent doesn’t make you great.  What makes you great is your ability to work harder than anyone else to achieve your goals.  What are you doing with your 24 hours?
