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
I think John
is right. You have to try your hardest to improve. Every day you have to learn
from your own mistakes and the mistakes of others to become a better person and
keep moving forward. For example, if you are playing basketball, and you miss a
few shots, then you should try your hardest to improve your shots, practice. I think
that’s what he’s trying to tell us, to always keep trying to improve and
practice.
