Mastering Basics: The Key to Success

Alan Stein Jr. is a performance coach, speaker and author who has spent 15+ years working with the highest performing basketball players on the planet, including NBA superstars Kevin Durant, Steph Curry, and Kobe Bryant. He now transfers his unique expertise to maximize both individual and organizational performance.

In an early 4 am session in 2007, Alan questioned Kobe about focusing on basic drills, and Kobe's response left a lasting impact: “Why do you think I am the best player in the world? Because I never get bored with the basics.”

Alan discusses the mindset required to embrace the basics, what sets elite performers apart, how to define and develop a winner’s mindset, and failure as a prerequisite for success.

He also lives what he teaches by asking himself, “ Are the habits you have today on par with the dreams you have for tomorrow?”
