John Wooden: Making

“Being a role model is the most powerful form of educating… too often fathers neglect it because they get so caught up in making a living they forget to make a life.”

“Never make excuses. Your friends don't need them and your foes won't believe them.”

“Seek opportunities to show you care. The smallest gestures often make the biggest difference.”

“Don't let making a living prevent you from making a life.”

“Things work out best for those who make the best of the way things work out.”

“It's the little details that are vital. Little things make big things happen.”

“Make every day your masterpiece.”

“A player who makes a team great is more valuable than a great player. Losing yourself for the group, for the good of the group — that’s teamwork.”

“You control the terms of the conflict. Make them play your game. Don’t try to play theirs.

“Be true to yourself, help others, make each day your masterpiece, make friendship a fine art, drink deeply from good books - especially the Bible, build a shelter against a rainy day, give thanks for your blessings and pray for guidance every day.”
