More quotes by Phil Jackson
If we can accept whatever hand we've been dealt - no matter how unwelcome - the way to proceed eventually becomes clear.
Phil Jackson
Basketball is sharing.
Phil Jackson
I'm a patient person. I think that's one thing that I feel comfortable I can deal with - the downfall and the errors, as long as I see progress and people trying.
Phil Jackson
Winning is important to me, but what brings me real joy is the experience of being fully engaged in whatever I'm doing.
Phil Jackson
No one plays this or any game perfectly. It's the guy who recovers from his mistakes who wins.
Phil Jackson
The strength of the team lies within the individual. And the strength of the individual lies within the team
Phil Jackson
The strength of the team is each individual member. The strength of each member is the team.
Phil Jackson
In basketball - as in life - true joy comes from being fully present in each and every moment, not just when things are going your way.
Phil Jackson
When the mind is allowed to relax, inspiration often follows.
Phil Jackson
Basketball is a simple game. Your goal is penetration, get the ball close to the basket, and there are three ways to do that. Pass, dribble and offensive rebound.
Phil Jackson
In basketball - as in life - true joy comes from being fully present in each and every moment, not just when things are going your way. Of course, it's no accident that things are more likely to go your way when you stop worrying about whether you're going to win or lose and focus your full attention on what's happening right this moment.
Phil Jackson
My philosophy is that you can't motivate players with speeches, you have motivated players that you draft. That's where they come in and those are the guys that are competitive. You cannot teach competitiveness.
Phil Jackson
The real value in everything you do is in the details.
Phil Jackson
An acrobatic dunk will make it onto Sports Center. A simple, unspectacular bounce pass in the rhythm of the offense will not. System basketball has been replaced by players who want to be the system.
Phil Jackson
What moves me is watching young men bond together and tap into the magic that arises when they focus with their whole heart and soul on something greater than themselves. Once you've experienced that, it's something you never forget.
Phil Jackson
I know what it takes to be a coach. I've gone through that. I think I came up short my last season. Lots of things were happening physically to me, and emotionally, perhaps mentally, too. I thought it was time to tend to more important things, like health and like family. I still enjoy that, and I don't think I have any need to go back to coach.
Phil Jackson
I gave it my body and mind, but I have kept my soul.
Phil Jackson
I played hockey in North Dakota growing up and watch a lot of that.
Phil Jackson
The ideal way to win a championship is step by step.
Phil Jackson
Wisdom is always an overmatch for strength.
