From an unknown author
“Winners and losers typically have the same goals but different outcomes. It’s not goals that determine success; systems do.”
Bill Little’s systems always rose to the highest level of success. He was a creative genius using various media protocols to define the human spirit. In addition, he had a 6th sense in writing that revealed the nuances of sports that most professional writers miss.
He said, “What I found in sports was the human element. It’s the conquest of the human spirit. It makes you love the game — whatever it is — and you cry with it, whether you win or lose.”
Bill used all his extraordinary innate skills to elevate words to visions.
The link below shows the master at work elevating losing a game to a victory of the spirit. After all, handling defeat is part of everyone’s life journey montage. Defeat is a lesson learned and a stepping stone to success if corrected.
“In time, the good things that happened in Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium on Senior Night, 2011, will last. The loss, painful in the moment, will give way to memories of a special place, a special night, and remembrances of teammates, family and friends.
That is, after all, the mantra of this team. It has always been about each other, and about trying to rebuild something extraordinary. When it is all said and done, it will not be a single play or a number on a scoreboard that will hang like pictures in the hallways of the mind.
It will be an ever-changing montage that is a mosaic, blending the best of times and the worst of times, the hardest of moments with the exhilarating, because that is the only way we can understand the realities and the emotions of life. In the end, it will be the whole, and not the part of life that will matter.”
