Have a vision and then create your own reality. Otherwise, someone else may create it for you.

If you put good people around you, I guess you're smart. You learn from them and that makes you a better coach.

Talent is not enough. It's an important component in a successful performance, but it's really only a starting point.

If I win, I attract other good players and by doing that I win more games.

Chemistry is a contribution that teammates make to each other, but it's also something a coach can create or facilitate.

When you set a goal, write it down and then it's like making a promise to yourself.

I put myself around good people, including my assistant coaches. A lot of head coaches are intimidated by their assistant coaches, they'd rather get people that are far less talented than them because it's not threatening.
