"Ability may get you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there. -John Wooden.

One could be an extremely talented basketball player, but that is not the only trait that they should rely on in order to be considered a winner. John Wooden constantly reminded his players that elements such as personality, proper attitude, respect, and dedication are only a couple features that will help them become champions. Life includes similar actions and the most important component is how one individual responds in serious, as well as everyday, situations. Having the strength to maintain these characteristics will result in success.
