#95 - Kevin Garnett is a Freak

Blog_garnett_3Kevin Garnett is a freak. He is 6' 11" tall and weighs only 220 lbs. He joined the NBA right out of high school and has been a star player ever since.

This year he joined the Boston Celtics and has helped lead them to the playoffs. After a win last night, here is what his coach, Doc Rivers, had to say about Garnett.

"Well, he's nuts. And that's a good thing because he cares so much. And sometimes you worry that he cares too much."

Garnett is intense, tenacious and passionate. He can also be volatile, angry and unpredictable.

As Sportcenter explained, "a frustrated Kevin Garnett is a dangerous Kevin Garnett." He is dangerous on the court. He is dangerous because he channels his frustration into the tremendous energy necessary to dominate a game.

Garnett is "nuts and that is a good thing." He doesn't "care too much." He is successful precisely because he cares so much.

Are you nuts? Can you see how that could be a good thing?

What do you care about too much? How could you channel that passion into greater success?
