We are all equal in that we can all strive to become the best we are capable of becoming. We can always improve but we shouldn't compare ourselves to others. We get in trouble when we start trying to measure up to someone else.

I talked to the players and tried to make them aware of what was good and bad, but I didn't try to run their lives.

There is no great fun, satisfaction, or joy derived from doing something that's easy.

Never complain about the officiating. It does no good. During the game I don't want to be fighting two opponents.

You are not a failure until you start blaming others for your mistakes

All of life is peaks and valleys. Don't let the peaks get too high and the valleys too low.

When we aren't alert, we miss opportunities to improve ourselves. We should always watch for circumstances or situations that can help or harm us and be eager to learn from these encounters.
