Wooden
On Leadership
John Wooden
You won’t find this book recommended anywhere, and yet, it’s the most practical book on leadership. John Maxwell, the leadership guru, spent years learning from Coach Wooden. I’ve never understood what ‘attention to details’ means until I read this book.
Three notes from the book:
1- Succes is peace of mind which is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you made the effort to become the best of which you are capable.
2- Earn the respect of everyone, especially of yourself.
3- There is no trick, no easy way to accomplish the difficult task, no substitute for old-fashioned work.
