    "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

    He dedicated his life. He didn't get cut his 10th grade yr, he played jv instead of varsity. His will to win and be the greatest could never be matched. He gave everything he had always and refused to lose

    He used every little thing as motivation. He read the newspaper and listened to the critics all of the time. He was determined to prove all of them wrong. He was highly competitive and hated to lose at anything.
