winning

Get fired, no one will call you a quitter.

I think we had to hit rock-bottom in all facets of the program before we could ever start moving in a positive direction.

The third year at a school for any head coach is the most important year for the program they are attempting to develop.

I hate to lose more than I love to win.

Success is not as easy as winners make it look nor as hard as losers make it sound.

The ones who win usually don't need the prize.

Making an effort can be equated to not doing anything at all. You don't make an effort to walk, you just walk. It's the same with winning. You don't make an effort to win, you just do it.

While I told myself that each win was a small deposit on the ultimate ownership of the world welterweight crown, the enormous need in me to win touched a whole heap of other responses a fourteen years old can't really work out. It had something to do with rejecting the Lord, with my mother, the Judge, being surrounded by guys who came from wealthy homes, even my headless snake. While I didn't think of it as camouflage, I now know that it was, that I kept myself protected by being out in front. Too far in front to be an easy mark.

We don't need to win all the time. We should embrace losing. Losing weight, bad employees, disloyal friends...These aren't bad things @ all!

This is truly a rags to riches story which doesn__ happen often, but it does happen. Hope is offered to those who face similar challenges that in this great Country dreams can be realized when work ethic and passion lead the way.

_ I have experienced the youth of Generation X, Y and currently Z. Teenage boys have changed in many ways over the years. Yet still they are quite similar to the boys I first coached in 1980 at a high school in Ohio.

The development of the __e Believe_ philosophy must be real and not cosmetic. Everyone must buy in and understand that it is not a motivational tool, but rather something very personal that should be lived and that all must believe in order for true success to be achieved.

Life is a game that you win when you solve the puzzle of yourself.

It just a fun game, until someone starts to win and then everyone else begins to cheat!

I truly believe that success is determined not on Friday nights during games but rather in practice away from the lights and glimmer where coaches and players only have each other, their sweat, their discipline and their loyalty to each other. It is at practice where the boys of America become men through hard work, dedication and perseverance.

It__ much harder to twist the charitable arm of a lottery winner compared to that of a man at his lowest ebb. It sounds like the wrong way round at first, but when you really put your nut to it, people are more frightened of losing the big shit than of having fuck all to begin with and losing a bit of that.

It was the secret to winning any contest, he said, in life or in the boxing ring _ you just had to get up more than you fell down.

As of today, you do anything that I feel is disrespecting our program in any way, you are gone! From this day forward, everyone will be at practice in uniform as we will either build this program into something or we will destroy it!
