"No Excuse Leadership"

Quote from No Excuse Leadership, Lessons from the U.S. Army's Elite Rangers by Brace Barber:

"In order to accomplish our goals, we need a lot fewer resources than common wisdom would suggest. What you can't do without is determination. Win or lose, you must give it your all and never give up."


Despite our sports metaphors, basketball is not war. But the teachings of the US Army to their elite warriors inform us of the values and commitment necessary for success in any field.
