More quotes by John Wooden
Remember this, the choices you make in life, make you.
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
People want to believe you are sincerely interested in them as a person, not just what they can do for you.
John Wooden
Winning and losing aren't all they're cracked up to be, but the trip to the destination is.
John Wooden
Always think of passing the ball before shooting it.
John Wooden
Without proper self-evaluation, failure is inevitable.
John Wooden
Players with fight never lose a game, they just run out of time
John Wooden
You will never outperform your inner circle.
John Wooden
A mentor must always guide, never push. It was my job to listen to them, offer my perspective, and encourage them to pursue the ideals they believed to be true.
John Wooden
I've never stopped trying to do what's right. I'm not doing it to earn favor with God. I'm doing it because it's the right thing to do.
John Wooden
It's the little details that are vital. Little things make big things happen.
John Wooden
There are little details in everything you do, and if you get away from any one of the little details, you're not teaching the thing as a whole. For it is little things which, together, make the whole. This, I think, is extremely important.
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
Happiness begins where selfishness ends.
John Wooden
Dwelling in the past prevents doing something in the present.
John Wooden
A Coach must never forget that he is a leader and not merely a person with authority.
John Wooden
Not everyone is equipped to be a leader, but in a sense, everyone is a leader to someone, even though you're not equipped. I think parents are a leader to youngsters, teacher are leaders, coaches are leaders, businessmen are leaders.
John Wooden
Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.
John Wooden
The true athlete should have character, not be a character
John Wooden
Give me 100 percent. You can't make up for a poor effort today by giving 110 percent tomorrow. You don't have 110 percent. You only have 100 percent, and that's what I want from you right now.
John Wooden
