In times like these, it is essential to turn to the motivational wisdom of our coaches, and to consider the words of those who have guided athletes through challenges and successes.<\/p>\n<p>Here are five quotes from some of the greatest coaches in sports history to inspire you as you pursue post-season success:<\/p>\n<h2>1. \u201cPerfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.\u201d &#8211;<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vincelombardi.com\/quotes.html\">Vince Lombardi<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In swimming, it can be all too easy to compare yourself to your \u201cideal\u201d swimming self and see those ideals as impossible. In order to succeed, however, as this motivational quote suggests, you must be willing to reach for your seemingly impossible goals. If you dig deep, that phenomenal, Lezak-like finish might be possible. That NCAA cut, seemingly out of reach, might simply require a little extra heart. Don&#8217;t deny the possibility of your dreams.<\/p>\n<h2>2. \u201cHere\u2019s how I\u2019m going to beat you. I\u2019m going to outwork you. That\u2019s it. That\u2019s all there is to it.\u201d &#8211;<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.newsday.com\/sports\/college\/college-basketball\/pat-summitt-dead-winningest-division-i-coach-was-64-1.11978257\">Pat Summitt<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_214781\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-214781\" data-attachment-id=\"214781\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/5-motivational-quotes-from-great-coaches-to-jumpstart-the-new-year\/larkin-confused-listen-auburn-practice\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/larkin-confused-listen-auburn-practice.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"2400,1600\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;5.6&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON D5&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1469759698&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;24&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;8000&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.003125&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"larkin-confused-listen-auburn-practice\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;larkin-confused-listen-auburn-practice&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Delly Carr \/ Swimming Australia Ltd.&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/larkin-confused-listen-auburn-practice-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/larkin-confused-listen-auburn-practice-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-214781\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/larkin-confused-listen-auburn-practice-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"larkin-confused-listen-auburn-practice\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-214781\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Delly Carr \/ Swimming Australia Ltd.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>One temptation for swimmers is to worry about who they will be swimming in their races. We wonder if the swimmers next to us are faster than us, bigger than us, and more rested than us.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of worrying about whether or not you will beat the person beside you in your race, concern yourself with your own work ethic. Are you more focused and determined to win than anyone you know? Do you work harder than anyone else in the pool? If so, then you have done everything you can do to win. Take a note on the famous <strong>Pat Summitt<\/strong>&#8216;s motivational wisdom, and trust your own hard work.<\/p>\n<h2>3. &#8220;Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.&#8221; &#8211;<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2010\/06\/05\/sports\/ncaabasketball\/05wooden.html\">John Wooden<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>You can\u2019t set the water temperature the day of the meet, transform the pool air quality within the span of a single meet session, change out the blocks for better ones, or create an extra break for warmup in between an awards session and the next race.

Sometimes, during championship season, you must sacrifice your own desires for the good of the team, whether that means swimming an off event, swimming in a relay spot you don\u2019t like, or swimming through sickness or injury. Regardless, the good of your team, as this motivational quote suggests, merits sacrifice and a positive attitude.<\/p>\n<h2>5. \u201cAnd the swim only hurt once&#8211;from the beginning to the end.\u201d &#8211;<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2004\/01\/05\/sports\/doc-counsilman-83-coach-and-innovator-in-swimming.html\">Doc Counsilman<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>For many of us, the winter season is flying by.
