What is ‘potential'?
It is a perceived forecast of results that is generated both internally by the athlete and externally by peers, parents and experts. It’s not a guarantee. It’s not really REAL.

Getting this balance in sync is the entire name of the game.

'Great things happen to people who make great things happen to themselves.'
