The best life lesson I've ever received is to have a great work ethic. Work hard at whatever the task is in front of you whether it's at school, at a job or even in sports, it's always important to work hard. The most successful people in life are not necessarily the most talented at what they do, instead they are the hardest workers at what they do. Kobe Bryant would wake up at 3 a.m. to train and at practice he would count until he made 400 shots. It payed off as he was an 18 time NBA All-Star.
Michael Jordan once said "I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can't accept not trying." Another life lesson I've learned is to give it your all with whatever you're doing. I'm so annoyed by people who say they don't try. "I didn't care about the test, so I didn't try on it", I don't understand why they just wouldn't work 100% and accept failure. Failure is how we grow and become better and stronger people. A person must first accept failure to become successful.
