Leadership

"An army of deer led by a lion will defeat an army of lions led by a deer." -Coach K

Winning Mentality

"The winning mentality is partly optimism, but mostly it’s a combination of focus, pride, competitive anger, relentlessness, hardness, fitness and courage--all the most descriptive words for competitive athletics.  This type of mentality is not about your skills or tactics.  What it comes down to is intense desire.  To get this winning edge, you need to build an indomitable will.  This means you must be relentless; you must never give up." -Anson Dorrance

The Vision

"The vision of a champion is someone who is bent over, drenched in sweat, at the point of exhaustion when no one else is watching." 
-Anson Dorrance

My Heart Is Full

"Being perfect is being able to look your teammates in the eye and know in your heart that you did everything you could to make them a champion…so today put each and every teammate in your heart, live in this moment and know that forever is about to happen!"  Friday Night Lights MOJO

A Man's Failures

"You cannot measure a man by his failures. 

You must know what use he makes of them. 

What did they mean to him. 

What did he get out of them." 

-Orison Swett Marden

Our Failure

“And even in defeat, our failure will tower over other people’s success.”

No Weaknesses
