There are many men in this world who have been over-estimated all the days of their lives, and others who have never had their full share of credit.

you're a provider of hope

“The No. 1 thing for all leaders: You’re a provider of hope,” [Coach Herm] Edwards said. “It’s a service position. You actually serve them; they don’t serve you. That’s very important. … There are two ways you lead: You lead by your seat, or you lead by your feet. I choose to lead by my feet. I know the people that I work with. I make sure I communicate with people. They want to see you.”

the difference between emotion and passion
Team members need a keen awareness of the difference between emotion and passion.
“You don’t want an emotional team; you want a passionate team,” [Coach Herm Edwards] said. “When the pressure mounts the most, you want poise and this sense of, ‘We’ve been here before. We know how to handle this.’ There’s this calmness of when things go crazy … what makes a winning team is to get players that hate to lose more than they win. Teams that have discipline, that are tough — those are the teams that win.”

their music still in them
Many people die with their music still in them. Why is this so? Too often it is because they are always getting ready to live. Before they know it, time runs out. - Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.
I have spent my days stringing and unstringing my instrument, while the song I came to sing remains unsung. - Tagore
As quoted in The Miracle of Forgiveness by Spencer W. Kimball. 1969. p.16
