John Wooden didn't win his first national title until his 16th season at UCLA.

Starbucks didn’t reach store #5 until 13 years into its history.

Sam Walton (Walmart) didn’t open his 2nd store until 7 yrs after starting his company.

Be persistent. Success takes time.

I have missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games.

26 times I have been trusted to take the game's winning shot and missed.

I have failed over and over and over again in my life, and that is why I succeed.
