"Set higher standards for you own performance than anyone around you, and it won't matter whether you have a tough boss or an easy one. It won't matter whether the competition is pushing you hard, because you'll be competing with yourself." -- Rick Pitino
This quote is a wonderful reminder that even if you can't control certain things (your crazy boss, the pushy competition,) you CAN control your own performance under those circumstances. You can make the decision to push towards a goal, stay later, come earlier, or make more calls.
Do those things, and you may find your success distracts you from the outside influences that usually bring you down!
