This person is the best, and knows it.

This person is their personal best, but doesn’t know it

This person believes they’re the best, but is an amateur.

We are the same, you and I.

You spelled money wrong.

So, someone thinks being the best is important, and someone else doesn't. got it.

What type of mindset, though? That's pretty important.

Mindset gets you on the right path, but lets cut the neoliberal crap and act like money and connection help massively.

And sometimes just straight up better genetics. I can believe as hard as I possibly can, but my tubby ass isn't winning any golds in the 100m Sprints in this lifetime

This is pretty rubbish.

I know I could be the best, but due to lack of opportunities, connections, and money I cannot build on the mindset. Without things to back it up a aspiring or proactive mindset contributes to burnout or disappointment.

The right mindest is important, but it doesn't matter how much I expect to outrun Usain Bolt, it's not going to happen.
