We can become great in the eyes of others, but we'll never become successful when we compromise our character and show disloyalty toward friends or teammates. The reverse is also true: No individual or team will become great without loyalty.

As long as you try your best, you are never a failure. That is, unless you blame others.

Without organization and leadership toward a realistic goal, there is no chance of realizing more than a small percentage of your potential.

Doing the best you are capable of doing is victory in itself, and less than that is defeat.

Consider the rights of others before your own feelings, and the feelings of others before your own rights.

Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

You can’t do anything about yesterday, and the only way to improve tomorrow is by what you do right now.
