Since JM and JS were out this morning, I made up their quotes and made them both about something to do with college basketball.

When I think of college basketball, I think of coach John Wooden. He was one of the most successful college coaches of all time, but what has struck me most about him was how he handled himself off the court.

One story in particular has really stuck with me.

After his wife of 53 years passed away, he started a ritual of visiting her grave once a month. He would write her a love letter and then place it on her pillow.

He did this from her death in 1985 until the middle of last year when he passed away.

If you have ever seen him in an interview about life, he often mentioned his wife Nellie and how deeply he loved her and how much his missed her every day.

This is the kind of person it takes to lead a team to the most championships. This is what it takes to be ultra-successful in life.

Make it a great weekend.
