“I think it takes different types of winners to maintain a winning culture.”
“You have to have some winners who know how to win people, to [keep] people together with vision and perspective. Then you have to have toughness and resiliency because sustained excellence is way harder than it looks. You have to be able to bounce back and deal with disappointment, failure and weakness, and a lot of that happens behind the scenes for teams that are very successful.”
“I think a winner has to be a master of preparation, they have to be a master of connection, extremely competitive and have really high standards for themselves and the people around them. They have to be willing to put in that emotional energy to hold each other accountable. They have to have a lot of passion – sustained excellence takes conviction and passion and focus. When you are dealing with a team sport, you also have to be willing to adapt and be flexible.”
“Hopefully, that is a pretty reasonable definition.”
There are the words from Minnesota Lynx superstar Maya Moore when asked in the December 11th edition of Sports Illustrated how she defines winning. This is a subject Moore knows a lot about. She is a three-time high school state champion, two-time college champion, four-time WNBA champion, and two-time Olympic Gold Medalists.
