The worst enemy of coaches is expectations. — © Carlos Carvalhal
The worst enemy of coaches is expectations.
I would not give my first 15 years to my worst enemy, and I don't even have a worst enemy.
A lot of these coaches, they're almost like military leaders, and the media is the enemy. Football coaches are just wired tight.
The worst enemy of life, freedom and the common decencies is total anarchy; their second worst enemy is total efficiency.
I think sometimes your worst enemy is inside your head. All your insecurities, your ego, your fears, your expectations.
The biggest obstacle I've had to overcome is loving myself 100%. And that's still a battle. I love myself, but sometimes you can be your own worst enemy. And I think I've been my worst enemy in life, because others haven't been able to do anything to me unless I allowed them to do it.
The enemy of the black is not the white. The enemy of capitalist is not communist, the enemy of homosexual is not heterosexual, the enemy of Jew is not Arab, the enemy of youth is not the old, the enemy of hip is not redneck, the enemy of Chicano is not gringo and the enemy of women is not men. We all have the same enemy. The enemy is the tyranny of the dull mind. The enemy is every expert who practices technocratic manipulation, the enemy is every proponent of standardization and the enemy is every victim who is so dull and lazy and weak as to allow himself to be manipulated and standardized.
Thus the highest form of generalship is to balk the enemy's plans, the next best is to prevent the junction of the enemy's forces, the next in order is to attack the enemy's army in the field, and the worst policy of all is to besiege walled cities.
We've lost a lot of coaches around here, but the philosophy and the approach, the standards we have set and the expectations we have maintained have always been upheld from one year to the next.I attribute that to the great character of the players and the willingness of the coaches to not get influenced and get off-message and to get out of the way.
Alcohol may be man's worst enemy, but the bible says love your enemy.
I am my own best friend and my own worst enemy. Before coming here, I was thinking I don't deserve it, that i wouldn't be able to meet your expectations, and that you had probably chosen the wrong candidate. At the same time, my heart was telling me that i was being rewarded because i hadn't given up and had fought to the end
Judge your enemy based upon capabilities, not intent, you have to look at the enemy and really almost make a worst case call every time.
Let the poor man count as his enemy, and his worst enemy, every invader of the right of free discussion.
Your worst enemy is hiding within yourself, and that enemy is your nafs or false ego.
Turning one hundred was the worst birthday of my life. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. Turning 101 was not so bad. Once you're past that century mark, it's just not as shocking.
If I fulfill YOUR expectations, how am I going to transform you? I have to DESTROY your expectations. I have to destroy the very mind that creates those expectations. If you come to me, never come with expectations, otherwise you will be disappointed - because I have no obligation to fulfill your expectations in any way. In fact, if I see that there are some expectations, I do things DELIBERATELY to destroy those expectations. That is the price you have to pay to be with me.
If you refrain from judging your worst enemy, his children will come to your side. What more severe judgment could come upon an enemy than this?
