“Sometimes you have to wait for the right deal. They all seem good, at least at first, and they may make you some quick money. But when the right deal comes, and it fits into your [overall] plan, it's just overwhelming success. Sometimes, with the long-term deals, you have to take a risk if you're going to get a reward. It's exactly like fighting. Sometimes you have to take chances to get that huge win.” IfsFirstsMayLongSometimesSeemsFightingWinningWaitingTermChanceDealsPlansRiskHugeFitRewardsLong TermOverwhelmingTake A Chance Author:Mike Tyson
“I think there's an awful lot of ball players with great skills, but whether or not they're going to be on winning teams is not going to be answered until you see how they fit in to a team or a program. If they don't, it may be their fault or it may be their coaches.” IfsThinkingMayWinningPlayerTeamFitSkillsProgramBallsFaultsCoachesAwfulWinning TeamBall Players Author:Tex Winter
“Soros is the best loss taker I've ever seen. He doesn't care whether he wins or loses on a trade. If a trade doesn't work, he's confident enough about his ability to win on other trades. There are a lot of shoes on the shelf; wear only the ones that fit. If you're extremely confident, taking a loss doesn't bother you.” IfsEnoughCareWinningLosesLossAbilityFitTradeShoesBotherShelvesWin Or LoseHe Doesn't Care Author:Stanley Druckenmiller
“College football is no more of a minor league than, say, the universities' schools of journalism, engineering or music are. We can argue at another time whether football should occupy the same space on campus as those disciplines, but for now, it does. The critical point is that a coach is less concerned with preparing athletes for the next level than he is with molding them to fit a system that helps him win games, keep his job and, eventually, move on to a position with a more prestigious program.” ShouldDoeHelpingSchoolJobsMovingNextGamesWinningSpaceLevelsPositionFootballCollegeDisciplineFitConcernedProgramUniversityAthleteCriticalArguingCoachesJournalismLeagueEngineeringMinorsPreparingCampusNext LevelAnother TimeCollege FootballPrestigiousMolding Author:William C.

It makes me happy to juggle all the jobs I do-figuring out which team is supposed to win on Fox NFL Sunday; reacting off the cuff to Kelly [Ripa, on Live]; and now Good Morning America, trying to fit into that group.

“Then to the victor go the spoils. You rise up by lifting, you know, each other up. You win.

“There's nothing new. I think that's the weird thing for me. Over the last couple of months, the keep-fit shows, and then at the end of it you get to lose weight and one of you is going to win a million dollars - that's not real.

“You can win as long as you chose your battles. You can win more arguments then you might think as a writer, even though you legally have no recourse, and your script can get muddied and altered in any way possible. You can use reason, logic, and passion to argue persuasively for a case in your favor. So what I've learned is to just basically not buckle - not be belligerent, not be angry, not throw fits, but just not buckle.” ThinkingLongReasonPassionWinningFitBattleArgumentLogicArguingYou Can Win Author:Shane Black
