Success is the inner satisfaction and peace of mind that come from knowing I did the best I was capable of doing for the group.

There's two things that you don't listen to: flattery, which can't help you, and abuse, which can't hurt you. You have to look at the facts.

Your goals are constantly revised according to circumstance, but your purpose, your real reason for being, that supercedes everything.

I believe that when we write things down, we being the process of activating the fundamentals in our lives.

I told (my wife) that there's a three-month aftermath that you better be able to handle, because it's real. I think the worst thing we could do is push it away and say, 'Hey, it's not happening. We don't have time for this,' because we worked so hard to get to that point. ... But the reality is (our opponents the next year) are going to come after us.

Everything that happens-good and bad-should motivate you to be persistent.

The hallmark of excellence, the test of greatness, is consistency.
