#Aptitude

A superstar is an athlete who commands a great salary based on his individual skills.
The Greek warrior’s focus was on grasping at immortality, and he did this by ensuring that his name would live on, long after he died.
The Greek hero valued self-interest above loyalty to a cause, his king, or to his army, just as the free-agent superstar values his contract salary above any special team, coach, or the game.
The Greek hero was impressive in his performance on the battlefield as well as in the sports arena.
