Summary

This quote highlights the potential dangers of tying one's self-worth or sense of value solely to their performance as an athlete.

Relying on external validation, such as winning or a successful outcome, can lead to unstable self-esteem and hinder overall well-being. It emphasizes the importance of cultivating a sense of intrinsic worth and recognizing that there is more to a person than their athletic achievements alone.
