NUMBER ONE: WINNING IS A HABIT

What It Takes to Be NUMBER ONE? -- from Vince Lombardi

Number ONE has always been Team Oaxaca´s legend. We were the first one and we continue to be NUMBER ONE. It's an endless story, an endless pursue to give the best we have to achieve success. Along the years we learnt from failures and we got up again. Today TEAM OAXACA is stronger than ever in its head and heart.

Today we want to share two Lombardi's videos. It goes along with the great American legends presented before in our blog. Their philosophy is still alive:

''If you don't think you're a winner, you don't belong here.''

''A man can be as great as he wants to be. If you believe in yourself and have the courage, the determination, the dedication, the competitive drive, and if you are willing to sacrifice the little things in life and pay the price for the things that are worthwhile, it can be done.''

ENJOY the following videos.

Commitment

Winning is not a something thing; it's an all the time thing. You don't win once in a while. You don't do the right thing once in a while... you do them right all the time.

Truth
Truth is knowing that you character is shaped by every day choices.

Excellence

Excellence must be persued--it must be wooed with all of one's might and every effort that we have. Each day there is a new encounter. Each week there is a new challenge. In all of the display and in all of the noise and all of the glamour and all of the color and all of the excitement and all of the rings and all of the money, these are the things that only linger in the memory. But the spirit--the will to excel; the will to win, these are the things that endure.

Results
Winning is not everything-- but making the effort to win is.

Passion

There is only one way to succeed in anything, and that is to give everything. I do, and I demand to my players.

Habit

The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather in a lack of will.

Mental toughness

If your're lucky enough to find a guy with a lot of head and a lot of heart, he's never going to come off the field second.

Discipline

Difference between men is not lack of strength, not lack of knowledge, but rather lack of will. But the newlish is in sacrifice; it is in self-denial; it is in love; it is in loyalty; it is in fearlessness and humility; and it is in the perfectly disciplined will. This is not only the difference between men, this it the difference between great and little men.

Winning is not a sometime thing. It is an all the time thing You don't win once in a while and you don't do things right once in a while. You do them right all the time.  Winning is a habit. there is no room for second place. I have finished twice in my times, and I don't even want to finish second again. Winning is a habit.


You've got to play with your heart with every ounce of fiber in your body. I have never known a man worth his salt who deep down in his heart didn't appreciate the grind and the discipline and TO WIN and TO WIN and TO WIN It is and always has been American zeal that is to be first, regardless of what we do.

There's no room for second place, there's only one place and that's first place I finished second twice in my time and I don't ever want to finish second again. I firmly hold that a man's finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of anything he holds dear is that moment when he has worked his heart out for a good cause and lays exhausted on the field of battle, victorious.
