In honor of UNC beating Duke over the weekend I have some quotes from Coach K :)
No this is not me hating on Duke and rubbing in the loss. Despite my dislike for Duke, Coach K really is a great coach with a ton of wisdom. I post a lot of stuff about basketball coaches and stuff related to basketball but I do so because I believe that it can be applied in many other areas in life.
"The group that can play as one, with spirit and courage, has the best chance to win."
“A common mistake among those who work in sport is spending a disproportional amount of time on “x’s and o’s” as compared to time spent learning about people.”
“During critical periods, a leader is not allowed to feel sorry for himself, to be down, to be angry, or to be weak. Leaders must beat back these emotions.”
“Discipline is doing what you are supposed to do in the best possible manner at the time you are supposed to do it.”
