Quote of the Day - Standing on the Shoulders of Giants
Michael Jordans Motivational Advice
Be Passionate. “Even when I’m old and grey, I won’t be able to play it, but I’ll still love the game.”
Make It Happen. “Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, others make it happen.”
Put In Work. “I’m not out there sweating for three hours every day just to find out what it feels like to sweat.”
You Must Try. “I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can’t accept not trying.”
Mind Over Matter. “My body could stand the crutches but my mind couldn’t stand the sideline.”
Believe. “You have to expect things of yourself before you can do them.”
Find A Way. “If you’re trying to achieve, there will be roadblocks. I’ve had them; everybody has had them. But obstacles don’t have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don’t turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.”
Attitude Is Everything. “Always turn a negative situation into a positive situation.”
Stay Committed. “The game is my wife. It demands loyalty and responsibility, and it gives me back fulfillment and peace.”
Prepare To Fail. “I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”
“If you do what everyone else has done, you will have what everyone else has. It is entrepreneurs who are willing to do what no one else is willing to do so they can have what no one else has.”
“It’s human nature to start taking things for granted again when danger isn’t banging loudly on the door.”
“I was not delivered into this world in defeat nor does failure flow through my veins. I am not a sheep waiting to be prodded by my shepherd. I am a lion and I refuse to talk, walk, to merge with the sheep. I will not hear those who weep and complain for their thoughts are contagios. Let them join the sheep. The slaughterhouse of failure…Is not my destiny.”
