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 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.”
John Wooden
This statement is saying that if you
practice at something you’re not good at then you can get perfect at it. You
must work hard and compete hard. Not Choose the wrong and use drugs or hang with
the wrong people.
