There is an old African Proverb that I love:
— Reads with Ravi (@readswithravi) July 20, 2026
“A cat that dreams of becoming a lion must lose its appetite for rats.”
To achieve greatness, you must let go of old habits that could hold back your progress.
The families, players, and MVB coaches sacrifice "A" for "MVB."
Everyone makes choices amidst time and resources.
Volleyball choices (examples):
- Off-season skill development
- Off-season club teams
- Skill building with teammates
- Physical training (e.g. strength and conditioning)
- Travel, lodging and team expenses
- TIME
- Video study
Alternatives (examples):
- Part-time employment
- Texting and socializing with friends
- Family time
- Hobbies
- Miscellaneous leisure
There are no 'rats' among the choices. And still, big dreams demand big sacrifices.
