Teamwork is Crucial

"The way a team plays as a whole determines its success. You may have the greatest bunch of individual stars in the world, but if they don't play together, the club won’t be worth a dime."

-Babe Ruth

Love Baseball

"The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It's been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt, and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game, is a part of our past, Ray. It reminds us of all that once was good, and that could be again."

-James Earl Jones, Field of Dreams

I'm pumped.  Atlanta Braves pitchers and catchers reported to camp yesterday.  I love baseball season and am very excited to finally be living in my favorite teams town.

Focus on What You Do

"You have no control over what the other guy does.  You only have control over what you do."
--A.J. Kitt

I've always loved this one because I'm one of those people who perpetually think and over analyze things too much.
 

Paying the Price

"Leaders aren't born they are made. And they are made just like anything else, through hard work. And that's the price we'll have to pay to achieve that goal, or any goal."
--Vince Lombardi

This quote meant much more to me after I attending a mass leadership conference at the New Orleans Arena last year.  It's 15,000 people in a room that think they'll become leaders by listening to these posers trying to sell them materials.  You either got it or you don't.
