6 replies
Hello Warriors!

I want to share with you 10 powerful quotes from legendary coach John Wooden. He was the basketball coach of the UCLA Bruins and is considered by many to be the greatest coach ever. He won 10 National Championships (seven in a row) over 12 years. I hope you get inspired by them.


"Make each day your masterpiece"


"Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do"


"Success comes from knowing that you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming"


"Success is never final; failure is never fatal. It's courage that counts"


"Reputation is what others perceive you as being. Character however is what you really are, and nobody truly knows that but you. But you are what matters most"


"It's the little details that are vital. Little things make big things happen"


"You can't let praise of criticism get to you. It's a weakness to get caught in either one"


"Don't measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should have accomplished with your ability"


"It isn't what you do, but how you do it"


"Be quick, but don't hurry"

      I saw an interview with Bill Walton one time where he told about writing John Wooden quotes on his kids lunch sacks everyday and the other kids at school would always want to see what he wrote.

      One of my favorites that really applies to people who think they are working hard on their Internet business: "Do not mistake activity for achievement".

        interesting quote ..it's what i mean when i get in the works smart vrs harder threads

        it's easy to make activity look like hard work ..but there is a great need to double and triple check to make sure you are achieving something .

        this is probably the main difference between someone who sells their time for a wage ..and someone who life off the profits they generate .
