You will never reach your potential. If you aren&#8217;t the\u00a0one truly pushing yourself, you will never give it your all. You must\u00a0have the heart and desire to want it and you have to want it all.\u00a0It&#8217;s actually quite simple, you will be as good, or great, as\u00a0<em>YOU<\/em>\u00a0want to be.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAMILY<\/strong><br \/>\nThis doesn&#8217;t just mean your immediate family. It is anyone that encompasses who you are and will help\u00a0you along the way. No one achieves greatness on their own. No one.\u00a0Family can be friends, coaches, teachers, etc. and they are all in your\u00a0corner. They push you, sometimes nicely and sometimes not so nicely.\u00a0They know what you need sometimes more than you do. You can survive\u00a0without them, but it isn&#8217;t pleasant and they make your journey much more fruitful and\u00a0obtainable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ATHLETICISM<\/strong><br \/>\nCan definitely put you in the drivers seat but will not keep you\u00a0there. Eventually, the athleticism will wear off and then you will\u00a0have to work smarter and not just harder. Your body, which houses your\u00a0athleticism, will eventually wear down and then what are you stuck\u00a0with? It is an\u00a0important\u00a0gear but not as imperative as others as it won&#8217;t keep you in the lead forever.<\/p>\n<p><strong>BRAINS<\/strong><br \/>\nReally are the glue of it all. Will help you understand what to do and\u00a0when to do it. Lack of brains will crush your chances for a long and\u00a0fruitful career. Brains are a major gear and can stop or start the whole process of being great.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PERSONALITY<\/strong><br \/>\nGetting along with others is not just a good thing, it is a necessity.\u00a0Friends and family are one thing, but it is others that will enable\u00a0you to achieve greatness in the long run as well. From trainers to journalists to managers to simply someone you meet along the way. Everyone can offer you\u00a0something, just as you can offer something to everyone. Your\u00a0personality will last much longer, and have more of an affect on\u00a0others, than your athletic ability.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CONFIDENCE<\/strong><br \/>\nThe final touch. What takes a person over the top. The knowing you\u00a0will dominate. The knowing you will get it done under pressure. The\u00a0knowing you have &#8220;IT.&#8221; Confidence is the one thing that can heavily\u00a0overpower the other gears within this system.<\/p>\n<p><strong>EVERYTHING MUST WORK TOGETHER TO ACHIEVE GREATNESS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Do you have everything working together, in your life, to ensure YOU achieve greatness?<\/em><strong style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/rubiosblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Gears-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-370\" title=\"Gears (1)\" src=\"https:\/\/rubiosblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Gears-1-748x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"449\" height=\"614\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rubiosblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Gears-1-748x1024.jpg 748w, https:\/\/rubiosblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Gears-1-219x300.jpg 219w, https:\/\/rubiosblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Gears-1.jpg 955w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 449px) 100vw, 449px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Feel free to add a gear below in the comment section and explain why you feel it is needed to make you great&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Click <a href=\"http:\/\/rubiolongsnapping.podomatic.com\/entry\/2012-12-14T08_46_11-08_00\" target=\"_blank\">HERE<\/a> to have this blog read to you.<\/p>\n<p>_________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/rubiosblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/Chris-Rubio-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-4075\" src=\"https:\/\/rubiosblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/Chris-Rubio-2.jpg\" alt=\"Chris-Rubio-2\" width=\"175\" height=\"181\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/rubiosblog.com\/rubio-long-snapping\/\" target=\"_blank\">Rubio Long Snapping<\/a> is, by far, the biggest and best resource for Long Snappers in the country.
