We cannot let how we feel determine how hard we work.
Famed basketball coach John Wooden always taught his players that there’s no such thing as 110%. If they didn’t give 100% in practice, it could never be gotten back later with some superhuman effort.
Therefore, a decision to do less than you can do is an irrevocable decision to settle for less than your best. You can’t get it back.
