Don't Fuck About - Develop a Winning Attitude
What it Takes to be Number 1 - By Vince Lombardi
Winning is not a sometime thing; it's an all the time thing. You don't win once in a while; you
don't do things right once in a while; you do them right all the time. Winning
is a habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.
There is no room for second place. There is only one place in my game, and that's first place. I
have finished second twice in my time at Green Bay, and I don't ever want to
finish second again. There is a second place bowl game, but it is a game for
losers played by losers. It is and always has been an American zeal to be first
in anything we do, and to win, and to win, and to win.
Every time a
football player goes to ply his trade he's got to play from the ground up - from
the soles of his feet right up to his head. Every inch of him has to play. Some
guys play with their heads. That's O.K. You've got to be smart to be number one
in any business. But more importantly, you've got to play with your heart, with
every fiber of your body. If you're lucky enough to find a guy with a lot of
head and a lot of heart, he's never going to come off the field second.
Running a
football team is no different than running any other kind of organization - an
army, a political party or a business. The principles are the same. The object
is to win - to beat the other guy. Maybe that sounds hard or cruel. I don't
think it is.
It is a reality
of life that men are competitive and the most competitive games draw the most
competitive men. That's why they are there - to compete. To know the rules and
objectives when they get in the game. The object is to win fairly squarely, by
the rules - but to win.
And in truth,
I've never known a man worth his salt who in the long run, deep down in his
heart, didn't appreciate the grind, the discipline. There is something in good
men that really yearns for discipline and the harsh reality of head to head
combat.
I don't say these
things because I believe in the "brute" nature of man or that man must
be brutalized to be combative. I believe in God, and I believe in human decency.
But I firmly believe that any man's finest hour - his greatest fulfillment to
all he holds dear - is that moment when he has to work his heart out in a good
cause and he's exhausted on the field of battle - victorious.
