Michael Jordan

"I’ve missed over 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."

"I’m retired 99.9%. Of course, there always is that .1%."

"I set another goal, a reasonable, manageable goal that I could realistically achieve if I worked hard enough. I approached everything step by step."
