More quotes by John Wooden
Ability is a poor man's wealth.
John Wooden
When we aren't alert, we miss opportunities to improve ourselves. We should always watch for circumstances or situations that can help or harm us and be eager to learn from these encounters.
John Wooden
Work without joy is drudgery. Drudgery does not produce champions, nor does it produce great organizations.
John Wooden
I never let our players get satisfied, I never let our Coaches get satisfied, I was never satisfied. We can always do it better.
John Wooden
The greatest failure of all is the failure to act when action is needed
John Wooden
Being a role model is the most powerful form of educating...too often fathers neglect it because they get so caught up in making a living they forget to make a life.
John Wooden

John Wooden
If we magnified blessings as much as we magnify disappointments, we would all be much happier.
John Wooden
Don't be afraid to fail. The greatest failure of all is failure to act when action is needed. Use the information that you've acquired in the past through the experiences you've had and act with self-control - but act.
John Wooden
Make each day a masterpiece.
John Wooden
The most powerful leadership tool you have is your personal example.
John Wooden
Over-coaching can be more harmful than under-coaching. Keep it simple!
John Wooden
If I did only what I wanted to do, I would not be obedient to the Creator. Sometimes He wants us to do certain things that we may not feel like doing. When it comes to what God asks of us, we need more than good intentions we need to follow through fully.
John Wooden
The best players don't win championships. The best team players win championships.
John Wooden
Don't look for the big, quick improvement. Seek the small improvement one day at time. That's the only way it happens-and when it happens, it lasts.
John Wooden
First, do not betray yourself. Second, do not betray those you lead.
John Wooden
A good banker isn't careless with pennies a good leader isn't sloppy about details.
John Wooden
We don’t have to be superstars or win championships…. All we have to do is learn to rise to every occasion, give our best effort, and make those around us better as we do it.
John Wooden
