I really believe that happiness comes from things that cannot taken away from you.

Defense is a definite part of the game, and a great part of defense is learning to play it without fouling.

Never try to be better than someone else. Learn from others, and try to be the best you can be. Success is the by-product of that preparation.

What you are as a person is far more important than what you are as a basketball player.

Lead, don't drive. And give credit. Don't blame. If an officer on your team suggested something and it worked well, give them credit. If it doesn't work well, you take the blame because you made the decision.

Promise yourself you will talk health, happiness, and prosperity as often as possible. Promise to think only of the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best in yourself and others. Promise to forget the mistakes of the past and press on to greater achievements in the future.

Seek opportunities to show you care. The smallest gestures often make the biggest difference.
