Motivational Meeting Opener with John Wooden

You don't need to be a sports enthusiast to know about the late John Wooden...considered one of the greatest basketball coaches of all time. He influenced me personally: not because I played basketball, but because he lived and taught certain principles that to this day motivate me.  For instance, he focused his players on being a team and helped them recognize their Creator, and to be the best they could be. 

This 17 minute presentation is worth every minute. In this motivational video clip, John Wooden addresses helping others aspire, how NOT to measure yourself against others, how to learn from others. I love what he says, "If you try to control things that you can't control, it will adversely affect the things you do have control over."

He wrote his own definition of success. Wooden taught great principles to his players; principles that will benefit all organizations that work with people: be on time, don't criticize others and be neat and clean. As someone who loves imagery, music and emotion, I can say this: the value of his message is timeless, and out-weighs any production imagery, music or special effects!
