If you know you're the best it only makes sense for you to surround yourself with the best. NO EXCEPTIONS
If you don't feel you're the best, then you shouldn't be doing your job. No one else cares if you don't care about yourself.
You have to know that you're the best whether anybody else tells you that or not. And that you'll be around, in one way or another, longer than anybody else. Somewhere inside of you, you have to believe that.
When you're the best, and you know you're the best, and your contemporaries know you're the best, that's a terrific edge.
You have to feel you're the best at what you do. You don't have to come out and say it. But you have to know it within yourself.
If you don't think that you're the best, how do you become the best?
When you hear from other players and they're telling you you're the best pitcher in baseball, that makes you feel really good.
If there are too many competitors, even if you're the best it's a lot harder to win.
Where do you go when you're the best in the world? What's next?
