The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will.
Leaders are made, they are not born. They are made by hard effort, which is the price which all of us must pay to achieve any goal that is worthwhile.
Football is like life, it requires perseverance, self-denial, hard work sacrifice, dedication and respect for authority.
The spirit, the will to win, and the will to excel are the things that endure. These qualities are so much more important than the events that occur.
Individual
commitment to a group effort-that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work.
Leadership rests not only upon ability, not only
upon capacity; having the capacity to lead is not enough. The leader must be willing to use it. His leadership is then based on truth and character.
Some of us will do our jobs well and some will not, but we will be judged by only one thing-the result.
To achieve success, whatever the job we have, we must pay a price.
Mental toughness is essential to success.
If you can't accept losing, you can't win.
In great attempts, it is glorious even to fail. Winning is not a sometime thing: it's an all the time thing. You don't win once in a while; you don't do the right thing once in a while; you do them right all the time. Winning
is a habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.
