         "It's not the will to win, but the will to prepare to win that makes the difference."

                                                         -Paul 'Bear' Bryant

i think that this quote is quote because it is true "its not the will to win, but the will to prepare to win that makes the difference." you always got to prepare to win and to be the best. you can always have the will to win, but if you are not prepared to win or you haven't practiced it, you will not get anywhere in in life. preparing for the future will help you succeed in life all the time. for example if you are about to take a test and you want to get a good grade but you havent studies or prepared for it you will fail and not pass. another good example is if you are in a sport and you havent practiced your skills to play against the other team you will not beat the other team. always prepare to succeed. preparing is choosing the right all the time.
