John wooden's pyramid of success
In period of 14 years, ending with his tenure at Indiana State University, John Wooden worked on his famous "Pyramid of Success." He put success, according to his definition, at the apex.
"The first two blocks of the pyramid are the two cornerstones because to be strong, you have to have a strong foundation," said Wooden. "The cornerstones of success to me, in anything, are hard work and enjoy what you're doing. So, one cornerstone is industriousness and the other is enthusiasm."
