Mental Toughness

John Wooden is one of the greatest basketball coaches of all time. His high school coaching record was 218 wins and 42 losses. While coaching at U.C.L.A. his team won 10 NCAA Championships in 12 years including winning 88 games in a row and four perfect 30-0 seasons. How did he do this?

Coach Wooden teaches Mental Toughness by living by 3 rules:
1. Don't whine
2. Don't complain
3. Don't make excuses

"Failure is not fatal, but failure to change might be." ~John Wooden

Quote of the month: "To accomplish our dreams we must go to extremes"
