Mauricio Pochettino Quotes

It's not what you do once in a while, it's what you do day in and day out that makes the difference.

Work is doing it. Discipline is doing it every day. Diligence is doing it well every day.

The stuff I do, I do every day, and I've been doing it for long periods of time. I don't start and quit-ever. I start and stay on it.

I train six to seven hours every single day. I wake up six days a week and know that it's going to be the same thing.

I practiced for at least two hours every day for twenty years, before then I practiced maybe four to five hours a day, and before then 14 hours a day. It was all I had ever done.

When you look at people who are successful, you will find that they aren't the people who are motivated, but have consistency in their motivation.

I'm used to practicing. I'm used to the schedule. That's kind of what I was born to do. That's what I've been doing my whole life.

I'm kind of a grinder.

The most important thing with me is consistency.

I try to just focus in on being in the same routine every single day.

We can all pick a goal and find a reason to do it. Then some of us can actually do all the little things over and over again. That's definitely a harder step. Doing it again? That's where it gets to be a beast, when you have to repeat. It's the hardest part of it all.

I want to be that consistent all year. I want to play the same way all 82 games. I want to be consistent every night.

I get up in the morning and I go to practice like everyone else.

I try to play the same way, play the same way over a longer period of time.

The first rule of doing work that matters: Go to work on a regular basis.

I've learned over the years that when it comes to success, consistency is key. Consistent hard work that we may not like doing today, but for a payoff we'll love tomorrow. Earn it. Enjoy it.

It’s not what you do some of the time that counts, it’s what you do all of the time that counts.

Lasting goal achievement requires lots of time, hard work, sacrifice & dedication to a process that is maintained over years.

Success is all about consistency around the fundamentals.

Good things come to those who have patience and take consistent, persistent actions toward what they want.

Everyone starts strong. Success comes to those with unwavering commitment to be at the end.

Diligence is not easy, but we can't reach our goals without it.

One must work, nothing but work, and one must have patience.

There's a phrase, "sitzfleisch", which means just plain sitting on your ass and getting it done. Just showing up for work. My uncle Raphael was a painter, and he used to say, "If the muse is late for work, start without her". You have to be there. You have to be there, and do it, and grind it out, even when it is grinding and you know you're probably going to rewrite all this tomorrow.

Discipline provides a constancy which is independent of what kind of day you had yesterday and what kind of day you anticipate today.
