It's absolutely wrong that I don't want guys to challenge me. And the people who say that aren't in the room.
Michael Jordan
Image
I know fear is an obstacle for some people, but it is an illusion to me . . . Failure always made me try harder next time.

Image
I don't do things half-heartedly. Because I know if I do, I can expect half-hearted results. Most people get it the honest way by setting their goals and committing themselves to achieving their goals. That's the only way I did it anyway. Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships.

Basketball isn't my job.
Michael Jordan

We had to be to the stadium at six o'clock for home games, and traffic was so bad it would take us an hour and fifteen or an hour and thirty minutes to drive. So now I'm sitting in a car for almost an hour and a half and I'm very tense. I'm worried about the traffic. So I started smoking a cigar going to the games.

If you're trying to achieve, there will be roadblocks. I've had them everybody has had them. But obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.

I don't know about flying, but sometimes it feels like I have these little wings on my feet.
Michael Jordan
Image
Winners don't just learn the fundamentals, they master them. You have to monitor your fundamentals constantly because the only thing that changes will be your attention to them.

Being afraid on the court, means you're not confident of your skills
Michael Jordan
Image
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.

If you pass the ball to Bill Cartwright, you'll never get the ball from me.
Michael Jordan
Image
If you can't stop thinking about it, don't stop working on it.
Michael Jordan
Image
I heave the basketball I know it sails in a parabola, exhibiting perfect symmetry, which is interrupted by the basket. It's funny, but it is always interrupted by the basket.
Michael Jordan
Image
Once I made a decision, I never thought about it again.
Michael Jordan
Image
I set another goal, a reasonable, manageable goal that I could realistically achieve if I worked hard enough. I approached everything step by step.
