John Wooden, affectionately known as Coach, led UCLA to record wins that
are still unmatched in basketball.
Well spent time today reading John's book "The 7 Principles That Shaped His Life and Will". Throughout his long
life, he shared values and life lessons with his players,
emphasizing the big difference between winning and succeeding.
Coach wanted his players to be victors in life and not just on the
court, so he treated them as an extended family and emphasized that winning was more than scoring.
John died in 2010, 4 months and 10 days shy of his 100th birthday. You can click HERE to view a 17 minute TED Talk that John gave in 2001.
