Text Quotes
Real wealth comes to the person who learns that we are paid best for the things we do for nothing  (John Wooden Quotes) You cannot attain and maintain physical condition unless you are morally and mentally conditioned. And it is impossible to be in moral condition unless you are spiritually conditioned. I always told my players that our team condition depended on two factors / how hard they worked on the floor during practice and how well they behaved between practices  (John Wooden Quotes) For an athlete to function properly, he must be intent. There has to be a definite purpose and goal if you are to progress. If you are not intent about what you are doing, you aren’t able to resist the temptation to do something else that might be more fun at the moment  (John Wooden Quotes) While you, the leader, can teach many things, character is not taught easily to adults who arrive at your desk lacking it. Be cautious about taking on reclamation projects regardless of the talent they may possess. Have the courage to make character count among the qualities you seek in others  (John Wooden Quotes) The general feeling is, if you don’t treat everyone the same you’re showing partiality. To me, that’s when you show the most partiality, when you treat everyone the same. You must give each individual the treatment that you feel he earns and deserves, recognizing at all times that you’re imperfect and you’re going to be incorrect oftentimes in your judgment  (John Wooden Quotes) Time lost is time lost. It’s gone forever. Some people tell themselves that they will work twice as hard tomorrow to make up for what they did not do today. People should always do their best. If they work twice as hard tomorrow, then they should have also worked twice as hard today. That would have been their best  (John Wooden Quotes) Approval is a greater motivator than disapproval, but we have to disapprove on occasion when we correct. It’s necessary. I make corrections only after I have proved to the individual that I highly value him. If they know we care for them, our correction won’t be seen as judgmental. I also try to never make it personal  (John Wooden Quotes) When I was coaching I always considered myself a teacher. Teachers tend to follow the laws of learning better than coaches who do not have any teaching background. A coach is nothing more than a teacher. I used to encourage anyone who wanted to coach to get a degree in teaching so they could apply those principles to athletics  (John Wooden Quotes) Each of us must make the effort to contribute to the best of our ability according to our individual talents. And then we put all the individual talents together for the highest good of the group. Understanding that the good of the group comes first is fundamental to being a highly productive member of a team  (John Wooden Quotes) We’re all imperfect and we all have needs. The weak usually do not ask for help, so they stay weak. If we recognize that we are imperfect, we will ask for help and we will pray for the guidance necessary to bring positive results to whatever we are doing  (John Wooden Quotes) 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  (John Wooden Quotes) Too often we get distracted by what is outside of our control. You can’t do anything about yesterday. The door to the past has been shut and the key thrown away. You can do nothing about tomorrow. It is yet to come. However, tomorrow is in large part determined by what you do today. So make today a masterpiece. You have control over that  (John Wooden Quotes) Learn as if you were to live forever; live as if you were to die tomorrow  (John Wooden Quotes) The outstanding coach is a teacher that gets all his squad to accept the role that he considers to be the most important for the welfare of all  (John Wooden Quotes) I do not have the right, bill, but I do have the right to say who is going to play on my team and we’re going to miss you  (John Wooden Quotes) You cannot live a perfect day without doing something for someone who will never be able to repay you  (John Wooden Quotes) Stubborness we deprecate, firmness we condone, the former is our neighbors trait, the latter is our own  (John Wooden Quotes) The life lessons taught by John Wooden have become legend. Here’s a collection of some of the greatest ‘Woodenisms.’  (John Wooden Quotes)
