Somebody once said, “To sum up what mamba mentality is, it means to be able to constantly try to be the best version of yourself. That is what the mentality is.” That person was Kobe Bryant.
He went on to say, “It’s a constant quest to try to be better today than you were yesterday. Mamba mentality is all about focusing on the process and trusting in the hard work when it matters most, it’s the ultimate mantra for the competitive spirit.”
Bryant lived and breathed that competitive spirit and used it to strike fear into the league for his entire career.
