REDBLUFFCHAMBER Business expo almost fu ll , se t fo r Th ur sd ay One of the most re- vered coaches in the his- tory of sports is John Wooden, nicknamed "The Wizard of West- wood," who won 10 NCAA national champi- onships in his 12-year ca- reer as head coach at the University of California, Los Angeles. Wooden, who passed away in June 2010, left behind a legacy as one of the most successful basketball coaches in the history of the sport, but he also left behind a blueprint on how to be- come the best and most successful person one can be. Today, athletes, busi- ness leaders, employ- ees and countless oth- ers follow these life les- sons from Coach Wooden in their own lives. Below are five quotes from this great basketball icon that ring as true in today's world as they did when he first spoke them. "Perform at your best when your best is re- quired. Your best is re- quired each day." As one of the top blocks on Coach Wooden's "Pyr- amid of Success," com- petitive greatness does not mean beating every- one else, but doing your absolute best every day. No matter how small the job, excellence is earned by doing the most thor- ough work each day, ev- ery day. The best work is done by those who prac- tice their skills, release excuses and do impor- tant things, even when the odds seem daunting. "It's the little details that are vital. Little things make big things happen." Even the most me- nial tasks at a job serve a purpose, and those lit- tle things add up to cre- ate big results. Nothing a person does should be considered boring or in- significant. Strategic planning and execution of major projects also includes the little de- tails that can make or break a triumph. Lead- ers can learn to appreci- ate their employees from the ground up by keeping this quote from Wooden in mind. The man who cleans the offices at night is as big a part of a company's success as the top salesperson. "You can't let praise or criticism get to you. It's a weakness to get caught up in either one." People inevitably try to downplay some- one else's success or be- little another person. Friends, families, com- petitors and enemies are all guilty of this at one point or another. Wood- en's advice is to stop fo- cusing on criticisms and focus on helpful critique. If a complaint is valid, that complaint can be- come a learning opportu- nity and a chance to im- prove. On the flip side, chasing flattery can be almost as debilitating as giving into criticism. Many people become de- pendent on praise, chas- ing the ego rub instead of true greatness. "Don't let making a living deprive you of making a life." Too many people trade daily enjoyment for achievement, but the key to true success is having both. Also called "work/life balance," most people find happiness when they achieve some- thing important and en- joy other aspects of life. Working is a way to earn a wage, but success- ful people also find de- light while accomplish- ing goals and victories through their job. "If I am through learn- ing, I am through." In life, education is never finished. Most suc- cessful business owners, entrepreneurs, teachers or employees are con- stantly on the search for knowledge and ways to improve. Life always of- fers up opportunities to learn something new, whether it's a new skill set, another language, a new hobby or a new per- spective on life. Not ex- panding a base of knowl- edge or experience leads to stagnation and bore- dom. Continuous learn- ing is powerful, so take life's lessons from Coach Wooden to begin build- ing your legacy.
