Talent is God given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful.
You can't live a perfect day without doing something for someone who will never be able to repay you.
Success is never final, failure is never fatal. It's courage that counts.
A coach is someone who can give correction without causing resentment.
If you're not making mistakes, then you're not doing anything. I'm positive that a doer makes mistakes.
Don't let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.
Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.
All 7 of these quotes came from one man.....
John Robert Wooden
for any of you all who have no idea who John Wooden is...
Hes only the Greatest Coach to Coach any sport....especially basketball. He is one of a few players that is in the Hall of Fame as both a player and coach.
He won a National Championship in College as a player and 10...YES 10 National Championships as coach for UCLA....
No men's college basketball coach has more national championships
John Wooden's knowledge and know how transceded the game of basketball. His books are read by coaches of all sports, teachers, preachers, lawyers, judges, CEOs and everyone else....
He has coached some of the greatest basketball players including Lew Alcindor(Kareem Abdul Jabbar) and Bill Walton just to name a few.
I woke up this morning to the sad news that John Wooden passed away from natural cases at the age of 99.
He lived a long and strong life and touched more people than he will ever know.
John Wooden will never be forgotten
I truly believe that death comes in 3s
So i must say
RIP to Dennis Hopper
RIP to Gary Coleman
RIP to Rue McClanahan
