For those who don't know, John Wooden was a basketball coach. Perhaps the greatest college basketball coach of all time. He died last June at the age of 99 1/2. Anyone who knows Pac-10 basketball, knows about John Wooden. And today, during the broadcast of the Civil War game (Oregon State vs. Oregon) the following quotation was flashed on the screen.
“Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.” - John Wooden
That idea struck a cord with me. I think it deserves a some more thought.
