In life, worthwhile accomplishments and acquisitions take time. Usually the better the reward, the more time it takes to acquire it.

Surround yourself with people strong enough to change your mind.

We're not all equal as far as intelligence is concerned. We're not equal as far as size. We're not all equal as far as appearance. We do not all have the same opportunities. We're not born in the same environments, but we're all absolutely equal in having the opportunity to make the most of what we have and not comparing or worrying about what others have.

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

You never fail if you know in your heart that you did the best of which you are capable. I did my best. That is all I could do. Are you going to make mistakes? Of course. But it is not failure if you make the full effort.

No one is an overachiever. How can you rise above your level of competency? Everyone is an underachiever to different degrees. The harder you work, the more luck you will have.

I do not want players who do not have a keen desire to win and do not play hard and aggressively to accomplish that objective.
