You have to be uncompromised in your level of commitment to whatever you are doing, or it can disappear as fast as it appeared... Excellence isn't a one-week or one-year ideal. It's a constant. There will be days when you don't feel on top of your game, or meetings in which you aren't at your best, but your commitment remains constant. No compromises.

I would never play an extra year for money. I play the game because I love it. I just so happen to get paid. If I don't feel I still enjoy the game, I can care less what a year is worth. I'm not going to play the game just because of money.

The key to success is failure

Limits, like fear, is often an illusion.

We're not winning because of talent. We're just beating bad teams.

Earn your leadership every day.

There was never any fear for me, no fear of failure. If I miss a shot, so what?
