You don't know what you can get away with until you try.

If you are going to achieve excellence in big things, you develop the habit in little matters. Excellence is not an exception, it is a prevailing attitude.

Surround yourself with people who take their work seriously, but not themselves, those who work hard and play hard.

So like any football or basketball coach, you always always believe you're going to win.

Trying to get everyone to like you is a sign of mediocrity.
