Penguins vs. Lakers

I had to contemplate the recent champions of the "Winter" sports: The Pittsburgh Penguins and the LA Lakers. There really seemed to be quite a difference between the way these two organizations achieved what they did.
There was not a lot of national publicity for the Penguins after they won. In watching Sportscenter the morning after, I had to wait about a half hour for them to get around talking about it. The Lakers on the other hand, or should I say Kobe, was broadcast for 30 minutes.
The Penguins had to face some real adversity. They had done it all year. It had been 30+ years since a team had lost the first two games and gone on to win it all. Not only that, it had been 30 years since a team in ANY sport won a championship on the road in a game 7. I imagine anyone reading this probably already knows this.
Here is where I am going. The Pens rallied around each other with their captain out for most of the game and won as a TEAM. The Lakers..well, it was all about Kobe. At least as far as the media was concerned. I actually couldn't care any less the Lakers/Kobe won. However, the Penguins on the other hand, what a treat. It kind of reminded me of the 1980 Olympic team. It might have been just because of all the red from the Red Wings.
In any case, the success you are going to have in Internet Marketing or Real Estate Investing, is going to be a result of how good the rest of your team is. Flat out, you are going to need some good mentors in these games to really make it. There are going to be things that you just cant do on your own. Nor would you want to do on your own. So, with that in mind, let go of the thoughts that you have to be SuperKobe. Start recruiting your team and see how much further you can go.
