Promise to wear a cheerful appearance at all times and give every person you meet a smile.

If you let social activities take precedence over your academic activities, then you will soon lose your basketball activities.

It is difficult for young players to learn - because of the great emphasis on records - but, ideally, the joy and frustration of sport should come from the performance itself, not the score.

Be true to yourself, help others, make each day your masterpiece, make friendship a fine art, drink deeply from good books - especially the Bible, build a shelter against a rainy day, give thanks for your blessings and pray for guidance every day.

Be quick without hurrying.
