More quotes by 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
Coaching is salesmanship. Coaching is winning players over and convincing them they have to play together. It takes a team conviction to play together to make things work.
Phil Jackson
You go in the weight room and you lift weights and you do all these things to strengthen your body. This is strengthening your mind. When you can stay focused and you can use that focus to always come back with your breath to center yourself, so that you're kind of floating in the moment, in the spirit.
Phil Jackson
The most we can hope for is to create the best possible conditions for success, then let go of the outcome. The ride is a lot more fun that way.
Phil Jackson
Love is the force that ignites the spirit and binds teams together.

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
The real value in everything you do is in the details. I just like that quote. A very similar way to say the same thing. If you're washing dishes you pay attention to washing dishes. If you're driving a car, you're paying attention to driving the car.
Phil Jackson
I'm not going to coach again. I've done my coaching, and I think I can put that aside.
Phil Jackson
No one plays this or any game perfectly. It's the guy who recovers from his mistakes who wins.
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
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
I gave it my body and mind, but I have kept my soul.
Phil Jackson
My accountant tells me I can't be a California resident anymore. I spend too much of my time in New York.
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.
