Confidence in yourself is a practice. 

Trusting yourself is a practice. 

Taking actions that allow people to trust you is a practice. 

And all the above starts with studying yourself.

Jose Alvarado could have tested the market. Instead, he signed three more years with the team he rooted for as a kid. Betting on yourself can get you the dream and a payday down the court. Pure joy is a practice. And he's demonstrating a masterclass on and off the court.

The Lakers won a championship in the bubble, pandemic, four months after Kobe transitioned, and were united across the league speaking out against social injustice. You can't preach teamwork and then almost immediately discard players. Makes me think about how companies move with mergers and acquisitions. Playing dirty gets you short-term wins. It doesn't get you long-term success. And I stand on that.

I watched the press run after the Knicks' Championship game. And while everyone was focused on OG’s play, I was surprised nobody acknowledged what he was carrying the way they talked about what everyone else was carrying. 

Happy Father's Day to the fathers still here. The ones who created memories with us. And the ones who didn’t get to see who we’ve become.

In our lives, we come across signs, magic, and serendipitous moments. That quiet acknowledgment you have with yourself is a private moment. And what people witness are the outcomes of what those moments create within you.

Happy Father's Day to the fathers still here. The ones who created memories with us through basketball. And the ones who give us signs.
