Kobe is widely regarded as one of the best basketball players of all time.

He’s won five NBA championships with the Lakers and led the NBA in scoring during two seasons. He’s an 18-time All-Star, a 15-time member of the All-NBA Team, a 12-time member of the All-Defensive Team. He holds the NBA record for the most seasons played with one franchise for an entire career: 20 seasons.

In 2018, he received an Academy Award for his animated short “Dear Basketball.” He also just launched a podcast called The Punies that teaches kids morals and history in a really fun way.

Kobe’s known for what he calls his Mamba Mentality, but it’s his big heart that is truly admirable. He is constantly reinventing himself and continuing to pursue new dreams.

There is so much power in his energy and presence. I know you’re really going to love this one.

So get ready to learn all about Mamba Mentality and how to embrace failure in Episode 691.

    How ironic, his father told him if he score 0 or if he score 60 he's going to love him no matter what...his very first game he scored 0 and his very last game he scored 60. Amazing.

    “If you’re afraid to fail, then you’re probably going to fail.” - Kobe Bryant 🏆
  • @CashMoneyMoore
    So glad this could be recorded before his passing. What a legend.

  • “ Those times you get up early and you work hard, those times you stay up late and you work hard, and those times you don’t feel like working but you do it anyways, that is actually the dream. That’s the dream. “ - Kobe Bryant’s speech during retirement
  • Lewis: How do you feel about losing ? Kobe: Exciting, because it means you have different ways to get better
  • I watch this every time I'm feeling discouraged. It instantly uplifts me. Missing Kobe so much!!! God bless Vanessa and the girls. Sending you loving hugs😇
  • @jasonness7453
    This man's work ethic was incomparable to any other athlete. Kobe really did define the definition of hard work and greatness. Even if you're not into sports, I think we all can take away from using the same formula Kobe did to achieve our own goals and our own greatness and to inspire others. Thank you to Lewis Howes for sharing this powerful interview. RIP to the legend and greatest of all time Kobe Bryant. 💔 “The most important thing is to try and inspire people so that they can be great at whatever they want to do.” - Kobe Bryant

    Kobe just comes across so openly. Not afraid to admit to his failures - what a man!! Xx
  • @MexObi
    This man left a Mark. That should be a vision we all must have. One life to live on this earth. Leave a legacy. He did. Job well done, Mr. Kobe.
  • @adrianjones8307
    Probably one of the best interviews from Kobe- really captures his essence as a player and father. Hurts even more now that he’s gone, but his Mamba Mentality stays with us forever. RIP a legend, you’ll never be forgotten <3
  • Kobe was my Friend, I met him in 2007~I was in Awe, more so than my 12 year old Grandson. I went to several of his games, I was amazed every time. There will never be another KOBE BRYANT!
  • @themichaeljoel
    RIP KOBEY BRYANT! 41 years young bro. LIVE LIFE GUYS and GIRLS! we get so caught up on our day to day that we forget we live but once.
  • @marvmoney9453
    He’s always focused, in the zone and determined that’s what made his career so great he started out as a student to the game and now is a teacher
