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 quote means that john wooden would push his team to do the best, it didn't matter if it was just a practice or a real game. you have to do the best to improve you have to try your best and give all you got. work on your skills and get better. don't think about yesterday or tomorrow think about that day and just think you have one day to show all you got.

this rule is even more important in life than basketball. you have to apply yourself each day to become 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 become a lot better. only then will you be able 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."
