Hard Work Isn’t Enough | Why the Best Players Learn to Solve Problems | Megan Gustafson Story

Описание: If hard work was enough, Megan Gustafson would never have been cut.
The problem wasn’t effort—it was solving the wrong problems.

Hard work matters.
But at the highest levels, hard work alone is not enough.

In this video, I break down a lesson that every coach and serious player needs to understand—using the career arc of Megan Gustafson as the example.

Megan dominated at every level growing up.
She dominated in college and won the 2019 National Player of the Year award.
And yet, when she entered the WNBA, she kept getting cut.

Not because she wasn’t working hard.
She was working relentlessly.

The issue was that effort alone wasn’t solving the problems in front of her.

Once she adjusted—once she learned how to work smarter, adapt her game, and solve the right problems—everything changed:
• Led EuroLeague in scoring
• Dominated on the Olympic stage
• Won a WNBA championship with the Las Vegas Aces

This video is for coaches developing players and for athletes chasing the next level.
The difference isn’t always how hard you work—it’s how clearly you understand the problems you need to solve.

If you want players who don’t just work harder, but think better, this is a conversation worth having.
