About John Wooden Memorabilia & Collectibles

The late John Wooden who was a college basketball coach followed a Seven Point Creed which he received from his father during his graduation from his grammar school. This is composed of being true to himself, making his every day a masterpiece, helping other, drinking deeply from nice books most especially the Bible, making friendship a good fine art, building a shelter against rainy days and praying for guidance and giving thanks for his everyday blessings.

Wooden is also the author of a book and lecture about Pyramid of Success. It consists of some philosophical building blocks for winning not just in basketball but also in life. Later, he was also hired by several corporations to deliver various inspirational lectures and Wooden even became part of commercials for NCAA and Hartford Insurance. It was even said that his lecture fees surpassed those of his salaries as a coach. The coach claimed that these windfalls in his later life have let him create education accounts for his grandchildren.
