Student
Success Statement
“When I was teaching basketball, I urged my
players to try their hardest to improve on that very day, to make practice a
masterpiece.
This rule is even more important in like 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.”
John Wooden
Once you start practicing on what you want to do for a living or
even in class you will become such a greater person because practice makes
perfect. Once you try to do what you want to do you will make every day count
and you be a successful person 24/7. Most likely what John Wooden is saying in
this statement is that he was teaching basketball and once you practice and try
your best every day you will be an important person in life and even a better
one by the day goes by you will feel cherished by accomplishing one of your
goals in life.
