Relationships. That is how I measure success. The last 4 years have come with a lot of tough times but everything was made better by the people God put before me. I just may be the most successful person on the planet based on my loose definition of Success 😀. Thanks Orlando!

Coach Jay Wright started off his career at Hofstra with 10 wins and came back the next year and had 9 wins. Hofstra gave him an extension and the rest is history. A Hall of Famer, a National Title and another example of why you stick with Character or quick results.

Nine summers ago, a UConn guard worked out with a New York-based trainer. Today, Kemba Walker and Jay Hernandez are reunited in Charlotte as NBA All-Star and Asst Coach. I spent 90 minutes watching the Hornets' longtime duo train in Manhattan last week:

A lot of players have 1/2 the talent, 1/2 the work ethic and double the sense of entitlement. The math doesn't add up and will never equal success. The equation has always been simple to understand but much harder to complete.

The power in the word Yet is incredible. I’m not very good at shooting vs I’m not very good at shooting Yet. It turns the statement into an affirmation that you are willing to put in the work to be better in an area you are currently weak in.

💬 If money is the only motive then you will be in trouble once you get it. Those who love the game will always put in work regardless and will bypass those who are doing it simply for the pay day. That is what separates the Greats from those who did something great.
