Kareem Abdul-Jabbar shares the greatest lesson that Coach Wooden taught him about winning, losing, and effort. "There are disappointments for any competitive athlete because you can't win all the time." "Coach Wooden taught us that you can only come out and give your best effort. That's all you can do." Focus on what you can control. "The outcome is not determined by anything that you have control over. Only thing you have control over is your effort and then the effort of your group, your team." You can't control the outcome, but you can control your input and how you show up. "When you put together a good effort consistently, you have a chance to win." "As long as you put your best effort out there, you should be satisfied with that and not be down on yourself." Excellence is the habit and the mindset, not the destination. The goal is excellence in everything you do: Compete, commit, and always look to get better. (🎥 Academy of Achievement)

Tony Dungy said, "If you only coach that person on the field and you only make them a better player, you've really missed a great opportunity." Great coaches coach character. They focus on developing people. Because character outlasts talent, stats, and wins.
