Reflection: I think this quote by John Wooden means that you can try your best and focus on your goal it may not be easy but as long as you keep trying you’ll know that you can do it. If you try hard to achieve your goal you’ll accomplish it but if your just there hoping it’ll happen nothing good will happen in your life.
