"Don't let making a living prevent you from making a life." ~Coach John Wooden

There are many famous John Wooden quotes but this one has weighed heavily on my heart recently. I LOVE what I do, and in education, it is especially easy to work all the time. Yet I know that I must find balance and take the time to enjoy my family...and to enjoy my life. Thank you for reminding me of this, Coach Wooden!

Other quotes from Coach John Wooden that have made me stop to think:
~If you do not have the time to do it right, when will you find the time to do it over.
~If we’d magnified blessings as much as we magnified disappointments we would all be much happier.
~Much can be accomplished by teamwork when no one is concerned who gets credit.
~Be slow to criticize and quick to commend.
~Be more concerned with what you can do for others than what others can do for you; you’ll be surprised at the
results.
~Being average means you are as close to the bottom as you are to the top.
~Nothing can give you greater joy than doing something for another.
