About this episode
Michael Jordan’s Cut That Fueled Greatness
Before he was the GOAT, Michael Jordan was cut from his high school varsity basketball team. His peers made it—he didn’t. He went home, locked himself in his room, and cried.
But that cut didn’t crush him. It ignited him. Jordan vowed no one would ever outwork him again. Early mornings. Longer practices. Obsession with every detail.
That single rejection became the spark behind six NBA titles, two Olympic golds, and a legacy that still inspires millions.
Mindset lesson: Sometimes the hardest no becomes the fuel for your biggest yes. What cuts you today may carve greatness in you tomorrow.
Good Morning, Money.
