John Wooden, UCLA Coach from forever ago.
"Peace of mind, attained only in self-satisfaction in knowing you made the effort to do the best of which you're capable."
Basically - do what you can. Always do what you can with what you've got. Don't complain about not having more. Understand that certain things are unchangeable and some things are - know the difference... and do what you can.
also... that deadlift is downright disgusting...
To me, success is the completion of an effort that required a given level of work input, and the satisfaction of knowing I've completed something I have decided to do.
the opposite of that deadlift.
Wait, that kid's not serious on that deadlift is he? Thats just the worst!
Even Baylor has better form than the boy in that video!
Erin-
Awesome post! Funny enough I'm in the middle of reading a book by John Wooden. A great example of a man who relentlessly pursued excellence on and off the court.
To me success means achieving personal happiness and maintaining a healthy balance in life, family and career.
