Climbing the Ladder: How Joe Montana Made It All The Way

As parents, it is our responsibility to make sure that children have good role models to look up to. Nothing charges a child’s motivation than a good role model. So, for this post, we have decided to put together some of the most highlighted quotes of Joe Montana. Scroll below to read:

Winners, I am convinced, imagine their dreams first. They want it with all their heart and expect it to come true. There is, I believe, no other way to live.

When the game is over I just want to look at myself in the mirror, win or lose, and know I gave it everything I had.

As a quarterback, there's no better way to finish your year, in winning a Super Bowl, than with a touchdown pass. The chances of that happening, by the looks of most of the Super Bowls, is a very rare chance. Fortunately for me, I had an opportunity.

Don't complain about not getting a chance and then be unprepared when you finally do.

Especially in football, it is not a QB's game... even though the media likes to make it into that - it takes the whole team.

Any quarterback that understands what the offense is really about is going to succeed.

There's no thrill like throwing a touchdown pass.

I started a business with two guys I played with, Ronnie Lott and Harris Barton: Champion Ventures, it's a fund of funds. We have $400 million or so under management.

In sports... you play from the time you're eight years old, and then you're done forever.

As a quarterback, you have to love it. As much as you like to turn around and hand the ball off - the whole traditional football game - as a quarterback, you gotta love putting it in the air.

I think it motivates you as people start to count you out. It doesn't make you play any harder, because every time you go out on the field you give 110 percent, but it does give you more of an edge mentally, knowing that you were in the same situation, because in sports you always find yourself behind.

Whether it’s an outdoor play area or an indoor play setting, children can use motivation to get them excited about the game. What excites your child about sports?
