More quotes by Michael Jordan
There are no shortcuts. I approached practices the same way I approached games. You can't turn it on and off like a faucet. I couldn't dog it during practice and then, when I needed that extra push late in the game, expect it to be there. Very few people get anywhere by taking shortcuts.
Michael Jordan
I play to win, whether during practice or a real game. And I will not let anything get in the way of me and my competitive enthusiasm to win.
Michael Jordan

People say they wish they were Michael Jordan. OK, do it for a year. Do it for two years. Do it for five years. When you get past the fun part, then go do the part where you get into cities at three a.m. and you have fifteen people waiting for autographs when you're as tired as hell.
Michael Jordan

Michael Jordan
My attitude going into training camp as a rookie was to impress. I wanted to impress my teammates, my coaches, the owners, everybody. I wanted them to say, ?This kid is special. This kid has the right mind, the right skills, the right motivation?.
Michael Jordan
Success isn't something you chase. It's something you have to put forth the effort for constantly. Then maybe it'll come when you least expect it. Most people don't understand that.
Michael Jordan
I missed 9000 shots in my career, lost almost 300 games and missed the shot to win the game 26 times.
Michael Jordan
If you're trying to achieve, there will be roadblocks. I've had them everybody has had them
Michael Jordan
I am competing with what I am capable of.
Michael Jordan
If I had been playing for money I would have complained a long time ago that I was underpaid.
Michael Jordan
Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, others make it happen.
Michael Jordan
You have to be un-compromised in your level of commitment to whatever you are doing, or it can disappear as fast as it appeared. Commitment cannot be compromised by rewards.
Michael Jordan
Being afraid on the court, means you're not confident of your skills
Michael Jordan
It's always been said that when I can't find a way to do anything, I will find a way to do it.
Michael Jordan
Accept a loss as a learning experience, and never point fingers at your teammates
Michael Jordan
If you think and achieve as a team, the individual accolades will take care of themselves. Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence win championships.
