"Why timing is important in strategy: There are ood times and there are bad times - for everything. When you understand timing, then you also understand rhythm. Timing and rhythm - they are one and the same thing, yet they are different. To understand them both as one, you must understand them individually. It is absolutely essential to understand the timing of universal harmony as well. Timing can be altered. Rhythm can be altered. They can be altered individually or in unison. You must understand that in order to restructure time you should have a complete understanding and realization of the universe or else your own substance will be infected with error and you will not be able to perform properly in battles of any type. I cannot stress enough that this comes with constant practice. Understanding timing and rhythm is essential to my strategy. You should always train with timing and rhythm uppermost in your mind, and realize that there are different types of timing and different types of rhythm. Understand them well and you will understand my Way of strategy." - Musashi

"A lancer should understand the sword, a kempoist should understand jiu-jitsu technique, and a doctor should know carpentry. How else could they meet the unexpected without knowing how the opposition's weapon's work? It is also suggested that the warrior familiarize himself with the actual workings of other weapons. In this way a foreign attack will not overwhelm him with its technique, even if it has never been encountered before. Constant study of every aspect of the warrior's craft is essential to understanding the true value of one's particular skills." - Musashi

"Who has not learned something more about themselves by watching the activities of others? To learn the sword, study the guitar. To learn the fist, study commerce. To only study the sword will make you narrow-minded and will keep you from growing outward." - Musashi

"Each week during his tenure, Ladouceur (who won 399 football games in 21 perfect seasons at De La Salle HS in Concord, California), would pair up his players and have them write down their conditioning, practice, and game goals on the cards and recite them to their commitment partners. The goals had to be specific and measureable, so that the team could evaluate as a whole whether or not each member had delivered on his commitment. Players who failed to live up to their commitments would have to explain to the team why they were not successful." - Don Yaeger

"Manning's trend of preparation continued through his professional career, first with the Indianapolis Colts and then at Denver. His younger teammates would tense up whenever they walked by his locker because they had heard stories about him holding pop quizzes on the playbook and strategy... And when a receiver joined the Broncos organization, through the draft free agency, or a trade. Manning would call him immediately and schedule time to work on routes and plays they would need to run." - Don Yaeger

"Dorrance refers to his practices as the "competitive cauldron" where he and his staff measure every drill, scrimmage, and exercise and then rank players according to what they observe. This public performance evaluation encourages improvement from lower-ranked players while motivating the top performers to work hard to remain at the top. My note: Anson Dorrance is head women's soccer coach at UNC. 21 NCAA championships." - Don Yaeger

"For nearly three decades, the Great Place to Work Institute has studied the greatest workplaces around the world, with annual data representing more than ten million employees in fifty countries... the institute's research consistently reveals that trust is the single most important characteristic in making a workplace great... In all decisions, leaders must always conscientiously ask themselves, "Will this build trust with my employees or is it going to tear trust down?" - Don Yaeger

"What if you're leading a team or organization like the Clippers, who lack such a storied tradition? Eastman says that team leadership has to emphasize to its players that they have the opportunity to do something new, to establish that winning culture and create "a legend for future generations. Bad history or no history - frame it. Frame it to your advantage. If you have a great record of success, stress it. If you don't tell your team that they get to go out and make it. Whatever it is, use your history to create energy for your team." - Don Yaeger
