Nonetheless, reading this story about Shohei Ohtani is pretty darn motivating- and suggests anyone of us can be the very best in anything we select if we will pay a very deep price.

For those that may not know, Shohei Ohtani is a superstar California Angels baseball player, who can both hit AND pitch.

From the article : In the book, he quotes neurologist Daniel Levitin who said:
