Student Success Statement by John Wooden

Student Success Statement

"When I was teaching basketball, I urged my players to try their hardest to improve on that very day, to make that practice a masterpiece.
This rule is even more important in life than basketball. You have to apply yourself each day to becoming a little better. By applying yourself to the task of becoming a little better each and every day over a period of time, you will be abler to approach being the best you can be. It begins by trying to make each day count and knowing you can never make up for a lost day."

John Wooden

Reflection:

If we want to accomplish something in life, we should never give up on it. If we want to achieve our goals, we make sure we keep trying to reach that goal every single day. Every day is a new day, and every day, you can learn something new, and once you learn something new, it's a win for you because you have not given up on your dream. Once you keep trying, one day you will be proud to say, "I have accomplished my goal."
