DON'T FEAR FAILURE. Fear being successful at things that don't matter
Tony Dungy
Success is uncommon and not to be enjoyed by the common man. I'm looking for uncommon people because we want to be successful, not average.
Tony Dungy
We believed it was not our formations that made us good, but rather how we played.
Tony Dungy
I talk to our players about life and situations and doing the right thing all the time.

At some point in life's journey, professionally and personally, we have to be able to trust our preparation.

Remember that mentor leadership is all about serving. Jesus said, “For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many” (Mark 10:45).

I wouldn’t have taken him. Not because I don’t believe Michael Sam should have a chance to play, but I wouldn’t want to deal with all of it. It’s not going to be totally smooth things will happen.
Tony Dungy
The truth is that most people have a better chance to be uncommon by effort than by natural gifts. Anyone could give that effort in his or her chosen endeavor, but the typical person doesn't, choosing to do only enough to get by.
Tony Dungy
If someone needs help, I can offer advice. I'm not always right and people don't always listen.
Tony Dungy
I never wanted our players to think the Super Bowl was the ultimate. I always talk about 'Yes, we're going to win, but what are we going to do as we're winning? What are we going to do after we win?' Winning the Super Bowl is not the destination. It's not an end point. It's what you do from here.
Tony Dungy
Avoidance doesn’t solve anything it merely serves as a temporary salve.
Tony Dungy
I needed to do my current job well, keep preparing, and wait on God's timing. I needed to trust His leadership rather than try to force an outcome I wanted.
Tony Dungy
Once we had become locked in on a schedule, he (Coach Denny Green) often created a disruption (artificial adversity) to that schedule just to see how guys would respond.
Tony Dungy
It's just really making sure I am doing the best job I can do as a dad. I do think that is my No. 1 job.
Tony Dungy
Everything's not going to go perfect. You're going to have some losses that you're going to have to bounce back from and some things that are a little unforeseen that you're going to have to deal with.
