HOW BAD DO YOU WANT IT?

A young man asked his coach if he would teach him the secret to being the best basketball player on the court.  The coach then told the young man to meet him at the pool the next morning.  They met.

The coach asked the young man to get into the pool with him.  When the water got up to their necks, the coach took the young man by surprise and dunked him under the water.  The young man struggled to get out but the coach was strong and kept him there until he started grasping for the surface and turning blue.

The young man struggled hard and finally managed to get out and the first thing he did was to gasp and take deep breath.

The coach asked "What was it you wanted the most when you were under water?"

The young man replied "Air!"

The coach said, "That's the secret to success on the court.  When you want success as badly as you wanted that air, you will get it.  There is no other secret."
