“The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather in a lack of will.”
Vince Lombardi
The will to win. I recently watched the movie "Secretariat" for the second time. I am often struck by what I do not see the first time I watch a movie. The scene where Penny Tweedy talks to Secretariat before the Belmont, after he has already won the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness, is great. She realizes that she has already won. She was so focused, with such a great will, that she really did not understand how successful she already was until that moment.
