I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed. ~ Michael Jordan
Game Winning Shot quotes by Michael Jordan
Mentally practice two or three times each week for about 10 to 15 minutes per rehearsal. Select a specific sports skill to further develop, or work your way though different scenarios, incorporating various game-ending situations. Examples include meeting your marathon goal time, striking out the side in the bottom of the ninth, or making the game-winning shot as the final buzzer is sounding. Mental practice sessions that are shorter in length are also beneficial. Good times include during any downtime in your schedule, the night before a competition, as an element of your pregame routine, and especially as part of a preshot routine. ~ Jim Afremow
Game Winning Shot quotes by Jim Afremow
Behind every one of Michael Jordan's heart stopping buzzer beating spine scintillating game winning shots, lie the corpses of a thousand missed childhood driveway shots. ~ Khang Kijarro Nguyen
Game Winning Shot quotes by Khang Kijarro Nguyen
I have missed more than nine thousand shots in my career. I have lost almost three hundred games. On twenty-six occasions, I have been entrusted to take the game-winning shot ... and missed. And I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed. - MICHAEL JORDAN ~ Frank Luntz
Game Winning Shot quotes by Frank Luntz
Michael Jordan, the basketball great, is a case in point. In a famous Nike commercial, he said: 'I've missed more than nine thousand shots. I've lost almost three hundred games. Twenty-six times I've been trusted to take the game-winning shot and missed.' For many the ad was perplexing. Why boast about your mistakes? But to Jordan it made perfect sense. 'Mental toughness and heart are a lot stronger than some of the physical advantages you might have,' he said. 'I've always said that and I've always believed that.' James ~ Matthew Syed
Game Winning Shot quotes by Matthew Syed
I'll do whatever it takes to win games, whether it's sitting on a bench waving a towel, handing a cup of water to a teammate, or hitting the game-winning shot. ~ Kobe Bryant
Game Winning Shot quotes by Kobe Bryant
If we try to engineer outcomes, if we overturn tradition to make everyone the same, we ruin society. If we upset tradition to allow for an equal shot at the starting gate, everyone wins, except for the charlatans and would be dictators. ~ Ben Stein
Game Winning Shot quotes by Ben Stein
We were losers who talked a winning game. No wonder honesty came to mean for my sister saying only the most damaging things against herself. If she began by admitting defeat, then something was possible: sincerity, perhaps, or at least the avoidance of appearing ludicrous. ~ Edmund White
Game Winning Shot quotes by Edmund White
One is always more vexed at losing a game of any sort by a single hole or ace, than if one has never had a chance of winning it. ~ William Hazlitt
Game Winning Shot quotes by William Hazlitt
Any game is important to me. At Boston College, when I went out for the spring games, I wanted to win. Maybe it is more important than other preseason games. It's just that everyone is expecting a lot from me in my first week of professional football. I want to confirm my expectations. ~ Doug Flutie
Game Winning Shot quotes by Doug Flutie
Amateurs quit when they are tired. Champions quit only when they have won. ~ Matshona Dhliwayo
Game Winning Shot quotes by Matshona Dhliwayo
So you can get very remarkable investment results if you think more like a winning pari-mutuel player. Just think of it as a heavy odds against game full of craziness with an occasional mispriced something or other. And you're probably not going to be smart enough to find thousands in a lifetime. And when you get a few, you really load up. It's just that simple. ~ Charlie Munger
Game Winning Shot quotes by Charlie Munger
The will to win is not nearly as important as the will to prepare to win.Everyone wants to win but not everyone wants to prepare to win. preparing to win is where the determination that you will win, is made. Once the game or test or project is underway, it is too late to prepare to win. The actual game, test or projetc is just the end of a long process of getting ready, in which the outcome was really determined. So if you want to win, you must want to prepare to win. Once you prepare to win, winning is almost anti climatic." - Bobby Knight ~ Bobby Knight
Game Winning Shot quotes by Bobby Knight
Women are like goats. It's like . . . Well, reasoning with a woman is like sitting down to a friendly game of dice. Only the woman refuses to acknowledge the basic bloody rules of the game. A man, he'll cheat you - but he'll do it honestly. He'll use loaded dice, so that you think you're losing by chance. And if you aren't clever enough to spot what he's doing, then maybe he deserves to take your coin. And that's that. A woman, though, she'll sit down to that same game and she'll smile, and act like she's going to play. Only when it's her turn to throw, she'll toss a pair of her own dice that are blank on all six sides. Not a single pip showing. She'll inspect the throw, then she'll look up at you and say, 'clearly I just won.' Now, you'll scratch your head and look at the dice. Then you'll look up at her, then down at the dice again 'But there aren't any pips on these dice' you'll say." 'Yes there are,' she'll say. 'And both dice rolled a one.' 'That's exactly the number you need to win,' you'll say. 'What a coincidence,' she'll reply, then begin to scoop up your coins. And you'll sit there, trying to wrap your head 'bout what just happened. And you'll realise something. A pair of ones isn't the winning throw! Not when you threw a six on your turn. That means she needed a pair of twos instead! Excitedly you'll explain what you've discovered. Only then do you know what she'll do?" "No idea, Mat." "Then she'll reach over and rub the blank faces of her dice. And then, with a pe ~ Robert Jordan
Game Winning Shot quotes by Robert Jordan
(UGO, about Crank) I see the addiction to video games because you want to win them and it's just hard enough so you'd want to keep playing it over and over to try to figure it out. I definitely feel the movie is like a game at times but I'm not a huge videogame lover. ~ Amy Smart
Game Winning Shot quotes by Amy Smart
An atheist is a man who watches a Notre Dame - Southern Methodist University game and doesn't care who wins. ~ Dwight D. Eisenhower
Game Winning Shot quotes by Dwight D. Eisenhower
He's winning.
Something stirs inside me. That means I'm losing.
I hate losing.
The game isn't over until you're dead. ~ Charlie Evans
Game Winning Shot quotes by Charlie Evans
You've got to have that competiveness inside along with the drive and determination to win. I just want to be the best I can be so that I have no regrets when I'm older. I can say that I gave it the best shot that I could. ~ Jazmin Carlin
Game Winning Shot quotes by Jazmin Carlin
Our job is to get on the road and win one game now. It's a great position to be in. We were lucky to get home ice [advantage] this year. For some reason, we pulled it off at the end and we took advantage early in the series. Now, it's up to us to do our thing on the road. ~ Martin Brodeur
Game Winning Shot quotes by Martin Brodeur
The funny thing about advertising is that it's not a zero-sum game ... Historically, in the digital ad world, pie has gotten larger and it's possible for everyone to win, and it's perfectly possible that will continue to be true for quite some time. ~ Eric Schmidt
Game Winning Shot quotes by Eric Schmidt
I just like to win basketball games. That's what motivates me. ~ Chamique Holdsclaw
Game Winning Shot quotes by Chamique Holdsclaw
Winning is not always punctual but eventually it comes. ~ Chinonye J. Chidolue
Game Winning Shot quotes by Chinonye J. Chidolue
Spying is a like a game of chess: Sometimes you have to withdraw, sometimes you have to sacrifice one of your pieces to win - preferably a knight rather than a king or queen. ~ John Rhys-Davies
Game Winning Shot quotes by John Rhys-Davies
Don't let us win tonight. This is a big game. They've got to win because if we win we've got Pedro coming back today and then Schilling will pitch Game 6 and then you can take that fraud stuff and put it to bed. Don't let the Sox win this game. ~ Kevin Millar
Game Winning Shot quotes by Kevin Millar
Find friends and not lovers; you will win the game of life. ~ Harbhajan Singh Yogi
Game Winning Shot quotes by Harbhajan Singh Yogi
He told us that nations of men fell into disorder, so nations of law were set up instead. He told us that nations of law then forgot justice and let the law become a Game, a Game in which the moves and the winning were more important than truth. He told us to seek justice rather than the Game. ~ Sheri S. Tepper
Game Winning Shot quotes by Sheri S. Tepper
A finite game is played for the purpose of winning, an infinite game for the purpose of continuing the play. ~ James P. Carse
Game Winning Shot quotes by James P. Carse
The greatest feeling in the world is to win a major league game. The second-greatest feeling is to lose a major league game. ~ Chuck Tanner
Game Winning Shot quotes by Chuck Tanner
When I turn in my list, obviously every record was important to me. I didn't just put records on there to put records on there. I was excited that "All I Do Is Win" could go on there because you hear it at the end of the game and that represents victory. That's undeniable. You can't hate on that, it's impossible. ~ DJ Khaled
Game Winning Shot quotes by DJ Khaled
Tis action moves the world ... [in] the game of chess, mind that: ye cannot leave your men to stand unmoving on the board and hope to win. A soldier must first step upon the battlefield if does mean to cross it. ~ Susanna Kearsley
Game Winning Shot quotes by Susanna Kearsley
If you were in a game of football always think you need maybe eight to win the game. Three can on an off day or semi off day but you always hard. And the players recognize that and they'll do that extra to make sure they get winning. The essence of the team is to understand and trust each other and to trust me. ~ Alex Ferguson
Game Winning Shot quotes by Alex Ferguson
Each year the winning team of the Super Bowl loses some ground (yardage) throughout the game. Yet they always keep their minds fixed on the goal, push through the opposition, and, as a result, advance to victory in the end. ~ Lisa Morrone
Game Winning Shot quotes by Lisa Morrone
Winning is not about a single game. It's about repeated performance over a long haul. Winners never give up, never accept defeat, and work as long and as hard as it takes to get the job done right. They say, "Don't tell me why I can't do it. Tell me how I can get it done" You have the winner's DNA...take massive action and never give up! ~ Farshad Asl
Game Winning Shot quotes by Farshad Asl
HS is supposedly a story that is also a game. In games, the characters die all the time. How many times did you let Mario fall in the pit before he saved the princess? Who weeps for these Marios. In games your characters die, but you keep trying and trying and rebooting and resetting until finally they make it. When you play a game this process is all very impersonal. Once you finally win, when all is said and done those deaths didn't "count", only the linear path of the final victorious version of the character is considered "real". Mario never actually died, did he? Except the omniscient player knows better. HS seems to combine all the meaningless deaths of a trial-and-error game journey with the way death is treated dramatically in other media, where unlike our oblivious Mario, the characters are aware and afraid of the many deaths they must experience before finally winning the game. ~ Andrew Hussie
Game Winning Shot quotes by Andrew Hussie
Maybe the critics are right. Maybe there's no escaping our great political divide, an endless clash of armies, and any attempts to alter the rules of engagement are futile. Or maybe the trivialization of politics has reached a point of no return, so that most people see it as just one more diversion, a sport, with politicians our paunch-bellied gladiators and those who bother to pay attention just fans on the sidelines: We paint our faces red or blue and cheer our side and boo their side, and if it takes a late hit or cheap shot to beat the other team, so be it, for winning is all that matters.
But I don't think so. They are out there, I think to myself, those ordinary citizens who have grown up in the midst of all the political and cultural battles, but who have found a way-in their own lives, at least- to make peace with their neighbors, and themselves.
...I imagine they are waiting for a politics with the maturity to balance idealism and realism, to distinguish between what can and cannot be compromised, to admit the possibility that the other side might sometimes have a point. They don't always understand the arguments between right and left, conservative and liberal, but they recognize the difference between dogma and common sense, responsibility and irresponsibility, between those things that last and those that are fleeting. They are out there, waiting for Republicans and Democrats to catch up with them. ~ Barack Obama
Game Winning Shot quotes by Barack Obama
Never change a winning game; always change a losing one. ~ Bill Tilden
Game Winning Shot quotes by Bill Tilden
If anything goes bad, I did it. If anything goes semi-good, we did it. If anything goes really good, then you did it. That's all it takes to get people to win football games for you. ~ Paul Bryant
Game Winning Shot quotes by Paul Bryant
Recently I have been spending my lunch with other game directors playing over local connection battle in Spirit Tracks. It is very good to do that in order to facilitate better communications between us. I have been partnering with the director of the Spirit Tracks to fight against the director of the new Wii game and yes, recently we have been winning! ~ Eiji Aonuma
Game Winning Shot quotes by Eiji Aonuma
Any team that does not win it's conference championship game should not play in the BCS title game ~ Nick Saban
Game Winning Shot quotes by Nick Saban
In order to WIN the game, you must first not LOSE it. ~ Chuck Noll
