Michael Jordan
American, former basketball player also known as Air Jordan. Born in 1963 by acclamation the greatest basketball player of all time. A multi skilled athlete and businessman. He had some wise words:
"Never say never, because limits, like fear, are often just an illusion."
"The game has its ups and downs, but you can never lose focus of your individual goals and you can't let yourself be beat because of lack of effort."
"Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships."
"Some people want it to happen, some people wish it would happen, some people make it happen."
"I've missed more then 9000 shots in my careers. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, i've been thrusted to take the game wining shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that's why i succeeded."
"I can accept failure, but i can't accept not trying."
"You must expect great things of yourself, because you can do them."
"If nobody will help you, do it alone."
"I've never lost a game, i just ran out time."
"If you run in to a wall, don't turn around a give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it."
"If you accept the expectations of others, especially negative ones, you wil never change the outcome."
