We then take a 15-minute break and return to give a major standing ovation as Tony Robbins(TM) introduces our next speaker -- Heat Coach Pat Riley! Rat on a Stick The crowd goes nuts as Pat strides out in a suit that looks as if it costs more than an F-16. He gives a confident talk containing these points: -- He hopes the Heat wins the NBA championship some day. -- Michael Jordan is an excellent basketball player. -- ``A mission is an image of a desired state that you want to get to.' -- The most important thing is: Attitude. Pat also reveals that he was not always successful. When he was 9, he didn't want to play sports; all he wanted to do was tunnel under the kitchen and (I swear, this is what he says) grab his mother's ankles. He wanted to quit basketball, but his dad wouldn't let him, and The Rest Is History. This reminds me of an inspirational anecdote that happened to me when I was in high school. I was on the track team, but I really stunk and I hated it, so I decided to quit. So I told my dad, and he said: ``Why?' And I said: ``I hate it.' And my dad -- I will never forget this -- said ``OK.'
