Know Your Competition...Sometimes It's You

Steal shamelessly from every source. MasterClass gives me a world of ideas. 

Steve Martin: 

• "Love your rivals." We will always have them.
• "Feed off them." If we don't, they'll eat our lunch. 

Steph Curry: 

• "Competing with myself, not being complacent." 
• "My opponent will look small...compared with my expectations."

Serena Williams:

• Know your opponent...play their weakness.
• "Don't overhit to a weakness. Mix it up."
  
• "Hit the ball to where your opponent is not." 
• "Know your strengths." 

Garry Kasparov:

• "Playing chess was not just about winning and losing."
• "Make a difference...it's about coming up with new ideas, challenging your own excellence."
  
• "Making mistakes was like physical pain...I no longer had that appetite for new ideas." 

Thomas Keller: 

• It's the critical feedback that we learn from the most. 

Steve Martin:

• "There's always work to be done."
