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.
I love this quote it's something I would have never been able to think of.
Nice. thats a good quote. Phil Jackson once said that "you can only learn to succedd once youve learned to fail" its kinda like that. NOt only that MJ is a great role model and his story is a great one. Would definately imagine something like that commin outta his mouth
Very nice and something to think about.
My Teacher gave me this one time.
"I can succced. By earlier failures I have become rich in experience and have come to know specific areas that require special attention. I wil jot them down and systematically think of ways in which I can improve. I shall plan. And then stick to it. There is avsolutely no reaso why I should not succeed. I will asses, plan, execute, monitor, modify and Carryon with the plan, and finally succed. In fact, I think that success has already been achieved and only time separates my thought of success and its transformation in to reality. I am commiting myself to all that is required to achiece success. I am a river that knows no obstacles. I shall find my way anyhow-and if there is none I shall make one."
Maybe Jordan has lived by this too!
Maybe Jordan did live by that maybe he didnt but you just dont know. Wouldnt it be cool to meet him?
In my life i sucked so many times its a shock when i succeed.
Thats better i think
I never did get to meet micheal jordan, but i did meet david robinson when iQuote:

how about ..........."Ive sucked so much that the odds of me sucking this time are greatly diminished. The act of sucking every time would in fact be a success making it virtually impossible for me to accomplish. So this action or the next must be a success to keep me from succeeding at sucking itself."
you are asking us to respond to a thought from a man that believes success is the norm..... he must not have been an on line poker player. I don't think any of us can respond to a subject we can't relate to.
But thanks for reminding us of how much we suck.
Good post, rep indeed!Quote:
