People eyeing you as a potential leader tend to ask three questions: Are you committed? Do you care about me? Can I trust you?

If you don't demand that your people maintain. High performances to remain on your team, Why should they be proud of the association?

My first assistant-coaching job in football was at William & Mary in 1961. The pay wasn't much, so to get $300 more per year, I agreed to coach the golf team. I didn't even know how to keep score, and really, my main job was not to wreck the van on the way to tournaments.

I believe your attitude is the most important choice you can make.

If you continually ask yourself, "What's important now?", you won't waste time on the trivial.

I do know this: God does answer your prayers, but it's not always in the way you expect. God knows what's best for us, though, so there's no need to worry when things don't go how we originally wanted them to go.

So what if someone wrote your obituary... that doesn't mean you are obligated to die.
