Felt the need to share this, as this quote applies perfectly to our beautiful game. Not all of us will become super good at #kendama. Not all of us will become world champions or sponsored players. Still, this is nothing to be discouraged about. Play not to be the best per se, but to be the best you can be. Exceed your expectations. Everyone has the potential to become better than they think they can be. Carry that grinder's mentality into other aspects of your life, and it will work wonders.
