How to Take Over the World
Key Takeaways * “I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can’t accept not trying.” – Michael Jordan * The greats do not cower when they are slighted; instead, their determination only grows further * “I never asked any of my teammates to do something that I wasn’t willing to do myself. If you don’t want to play that way, don’t play that way. I’m not going to do it for you.” – Michael Jordan * Learning is a gift, even when pain is your teacher * It obvious when a person wants to win more than the competition; the world has a way of elevating these people who simply want it more than everyone else * After Michael Jordan’s legendary performance in Game 2 of the 1986 Eastern Conference First Round, where he scored 63 points against the Boston Celtics, Larry Bird famously said: “I think he’s God disguised as Michael Jordan.” * “I’ve missed more than 9,000 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
