One thing my athletic aspirations taught me was that talent and the size of the fight in you will just get you so far. But in order to go further than far, you will need people with whom you can connect, people who can open doors, offer you chance and influence.
Yes, everything happens by God, but God gives through others, through people who can make all the difference, from doors slamming and things happening to you to things happening for you. So be as selfstanding as you wish, but don't be too much of an island.
