I wasn't really a work conscious type of person.
To be successful you have to be selfish, or else you never achieve. And once you get to your highest level, then you have to be unselfish. Stay reachable. Stay in touch. Don't isolate.
I'm not out there sweating for three hours every day just to find out what it feels like to sweat.
To learn to succeed, you must first learn to fail.
My mother is my root, my foundation. She planted the seed that I base my life on, and that is the belief that the ability to achieve starts in your mind.
The basketball court for me, during a game, is the most peaceful place I can imagine. On the basketball court, I worry about nothing. When I'm out there, no one can bother me...
If you do the work you get rewarded. There are no shortcuts in life.
It's a habit of mine now, noticing labels, logos, shoes.
I want to be the bridge to the next generation.
If you quit ONCE it becomes a habit.Never quit!!!
When I lose the sense of motivation and the sense to prove something as a basketball player, it's time for me to move away from the game.
I hope the millions of people I've touched have the optimism and desire to share their goals and hard work and persevere with a positive attitude.
I never looked at the consequences of missing a big shot... when you think about the consequences you always think of a negative result.
In any investment, you expect to have fun and make money.
