You are no better than anyone else and no one is better than you.

Helping others is perhaps the greatest joy! You cannot have a perfect day without helping others with no thought of getting something in return.

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

Never mistake activity for achievement.

In my opinion, being an effective leader requires being an effective listener. The most productive leaders are usually those who are consistently willing to listen and learn.

I discovered early on that the player who learned the fundamentals of basketball is going to have a much better chance of succeeding and rising through the levels of competition than the player who was content to do things his own way. A player should be interested in learning why things are done a certain way. The reasons behind the teaching often go a long way to helping develop the skill.

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