Quote of the Day:

"Remember this your lifetime through,

tomorrow there will be more to do,

and failure waits for all who stay

with some success made yesterday.

Tomorrow you must try once more,

and even harder

than before."

-John Wooden

Quote of the Day:

from "InsideOut Coaching: How Sports Can Transform Lives" by Joe Ehrmann -->

"An InsideOut coach's answers are radically different from the responses our contemporary sports cultre expects, or rather, demands. An InsideOut coach resists the transactional impulses and asserts that the right way, indeed the only way, to coach young people is to seek to transform their sense of their own worth, talents, and value. An InsideOut coach sees a younger, developing version of himself or herself in every athlete and bases lesson plans, communication, and the very structure of the program on the obligation to transform the many young athletes who need connection, empathy, and guidance."

There is no magic forumla for success...

Success is determined hard work:

"In 1948, I began coaching basketball at UCLA. Each hour of practice we worked very hard. Each day we worked very hard. Each week we worked very hard. Each season we worked very hard. Four fourteen years we worked very hard and didn't win a national championship. However, a national championship was won in the fifteenth year. Another in the sixteenth. And eight more in the following ten years."

Quote of the Day:

"Be more concerns with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others things you are". -John Wooden
