In honor of March Madness and this week’s start of the NCAA basketball tournament, here are some basketball quotes that apply just as much to the office as to the hardwood.
I have missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions I have been entrusted to take the game winning shot .. and missed. And I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why… I succeed. -Michael Jordan
A winner is someone who recognizes his God-given talents, works his tail off to develop them into skills, and uses these skills to accomplish his goals. -Larry Bird
Sometimes a player’s greatest challenge is coming to grips with his role on the team. -Scottie Pippen
We try to stress the little things because little things lead to big things. -Steve Alford
Tuesday Tidbits are weekly messages I send to my leadership team. They are generally short & sweet, often focused on leadership or teamwork, always positive and, hopefully, motivational. I hope you also find some meaning in them.
