John Wooden Day Quotations

When you improve a little each day, eventually big things occur.

Perform at your best when your best is required. Your best is required each day.

Don't look for the big, quick improvement. Seek the small improvement one day at time. That's the only way it happens-and when it happens, it lasts.

Make each day a masterpiece. Don't think your best days are out there somewhere. Why not today? Why can't today be a great day? It can if you believe it will.

Make each day your masterpiece. Life is now. Life is not later on.

Every day was a good day at UCLA.

I would spend almost as much time planning a practice as conducting it. Everything was planned out each day

Build shelter against a rainy day.

Do your best every day. Live each day as if it's your masterpiece.

Make each day a masterpiece.

When you improve a little each day, eventually big things occur. When you improve conditioning a little each day, eventually you have a big improvement in conditioning. Not tomorrow, not the next day, but eventually a big gain is made. Don't look for the big, quick improvement. Seek the small improvement one day at a time. That's the only way it happens - and when it happens, it lasts.

As I grow older, I appreciate things that I didn’t appreciate much when I was younger. I am thankful more than I used to be. I’ve been reasonably healthy, and I feel blessed. And each morning I can think, this is going to be a good day!
