The 3 Step C.O.W. Path To Guide Your Personal Branding
Character: Make sure you’ve got a good one. Own: Your own distinctive color.
Work: Your butt off.
“Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.”
- John Wooden
• First person inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame as both a player and coach.
• Won 10 NCAA Championships in 12 years with the UCLA Bruins.
• 7-time NCAA Men’s Basketball Coach of the Year.

The Harder You Work the Luckier You Get
“I'm a great believer in luck and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it.”
- Thomas Jefferson
“I do not know anyone who has gotten to the top without hard work. That is the recipe.”
- Margaret Thatcher
“Unless you are willing to drench yourself in your work beyond the capacity of the average man, you are just not cut out for positions at the top.”
- J.C. Penny
