I’m 90% what’s underneath, and 10% what you see on the surface, but so are you. We all are a reflection of what we do when the spotlight is not on us, and people aren’t watching.

Are we giving our best in practice? Are we working out after practice when the coaches can’t see us? Are we studying outside of work hours so we can improve? Are we preparing for the long term, even when we can only see the short term? Are we working to set habits that help us in life, while working to kick the ones that destroy us?

If you want to shine in the 10% of life that others see, then you have to put in the grunt work in the 90% that no one else notices.
