John Robert Wooden
John Robert Wooden is considered the
greatest NCAA basketball head coach of
all time. But many people knew him
simply as coach. On the court,
Wooden led the UCLA Bruins men’s
basketball program to an impressive
number of wins, with a 664-162 record,
and was named NCAA College
Basketball Coach of the Year six times.
Regarded as one of the best basketball
coaches of all time with 620 victories and 10
national titles, John Wooden believes that
challenging yourself and reaching your fullest
potential matters more than competing with
others.

Ludwig Van Beethoven

Beethoven is proof that despite being


deaf you can still compose great music,
that is if you have the brain of
Beethoven. He performed before the
public for the first time playing a piano
when he was only eight years old.
He went on to study music in Vienna
under Mozart and by the time he was
in his middle twenties he was regarded
as a great pianist. How so ever while at
his peak he started losing his hearing
but instead of giving up he worked
harder. Resulting in he wrote some of
the best music ever composed while
completely deaf.
