His impressive thoughts...
According to Vincent Lombardi, "Winning is not a sometime thing. It’s an all time thing. It actually means that you're willing to go longer, work harder, and give more than anyone else. You don't win occasionally.... but you win all the time. Make winning a habit."
Vincent Lombardi's strategical approach to win every time...
With strong will, he states, "There is no room for second place. There is only one place in my game, and that’s first place. It is and always has been a winners zeal to be first in anything they do, and to win, and to win, and to win."
Each time a football player takes the pitch, he must start from the ground up, beginning with the soles of his feet and working his way up to his head. He has to use every inch of himself.
Some guys play with their heads. That’s O.K. More importantly, you must play with your heart and every fibre of your body."
Vince's suggestive Organisational Techniques... "Making a football team is similar to managing any other type of organisation such as an army, a political party or a business. The principles remain unchanged. The objective is to emerge victorious by outperforming the opponent.
It is a fact of life that men have a competitive nature, and the games that are the most competitive tend to attract the most competitive men. The goal is to achieve victory through fair and just means, adhering to the established regulations - but ultimately to emerge as the winner."
His staunch belief...
"I have faith in the existence of God and in the inherent goodness of humanity. I strongly believe that the most significant moment for any person, where they achieve the highest level of satisfaction, is when they have put in their utmost effort towards a noble purpose and are left drained on the battlefield, having emerged victorious."
