hello I’m really happy to be
with you this afternoon to share
what fascinates me
what makes me vibrate and what
inspires me every day and who to my
eyes excellently characterizes the links
between the individual and the collective
this room which I will speak to you in
do I love basketball
I love this sport it’s really something
thing that I find amazing and what
I want to share with you today
it is that I was able to live such
fraternity sharing emotions of
solidarity in this sport of things
really incredible
good and then times anyway the
disappointment the frustration that sometimes of
injustice it’s true good basketball
it’s great
so far it’s true that I have when
even experienced even more emotions
strong
for example the day I went
married with my wife anyway
did not take and then after that there was
the birth of my beautiful children
clement and margot of emotions for the
incomparable blow but after these two
events there I must recognize
that it’s really basketball that has me
allowed to be the most affected the most
inspired for the most connected hit
with others, and I think it
can be explained by the notion of sharing
the notion of solidarity being
together to live these elements
good you saw them the basketball players of the
time it happened there are with
tattoos in every way
hair like that of the bands of
woody dive that’s not why he
there are some who have incredible ornaments
the paradox at the same time is that they
all have the same outfit
calls for a uniform uniform
it means one form to what
it’s actually used if I play with
green is still better than I
see that my buddy there he is in
glass to be able to pass him
to win matches that’s better
serves that we have the same outfit and
then what’s the point that his tattoos
do they want to tell us the
basketball players what they want to tell us
it’s OK
I’m part of this team I’m doing
part of this group i’m in this
collective
but for me, I’m someone
different
I want you their father is there
I am someone different and I
do not think we owe the judges and we
like elsewhere tattoos or not this
is not the subject I do not think we
must have let them be judged on it because
that I do not see you too well with
the lights but it seems to me not
that there are two of you who
have come stack with the same outfit
and in fact we do it every day
all as much as we are are you
know the rule of 3 never
you do not know the rule of 3
never it’s okay we’ll talk about it
then the rule of 3 never this some
really important thing because
that’s what makes it possible to differentiate
major sports teams less
good
and in fact that’s what can allow
to sports teams consisting of
less talented players to beat that
with the so-called players more
talented in those teams where the
operate with principles all
simple that will consist of trying to
set up this rule of 3
never that means it’s about
never criticize never complain
and never condemned me that’s me
already happened when I played
actually it happened to me
to criticize a little the playmaker there
on the end of contract taki spinning the
ball to another and I was not
happy and so except that when I
did that I do not have the performance
from my team
and then there is another thing that is
hyper important and who goes with these
rules there is something that we
call the attribution cause externally
so no matter what words I have
recognize that when I played
I was not necessarily so tender
that with the referees and that is me
already arrived at the end of a match
lost by little to say yeah bah we have
lost is the fault of the referee
already wanted to hear that we all have it
heard and it’s so easy
the attribution causes externally that
means I attribute the cause of what
happened and potentially from this
which went wrong with the others so
during that time it’s quiet I
disempower me and I imagine that
the others are responsible for my
hours of my failures and that’s what I
want to share with you is that the
biggest sports champions
when they manage to divest
his three never from the causal attribution
of those things
and when they manage to take their
share of responsibility in the end they
are more effective on the one hand more
powerful but also more connected
between them because that also counts
and then something else that’s that I
realized that me when I
plays and that it did me often and
it did not help me to be good and that in
our everyday life we put it in
place there is a hyper civilization
old that worked well they
worked so hyper fine
harmonious it was civilization
everything and they lived basically there
thousand years of that it’s not that the most
important
more important of that is that they
operated according to agreements that
allowed them to live well together
and that’s what I share with you and
oyonnax falls one particular who was
very important who was the one who
is not to make any guess
basically it happened to me already
played the coach decided not to me
play at that moment and I was in
to say good to me what does it mean
what can think about me who l
have any idea that she and her intention
et cetera and so on and during this
time there but we are not focused on
what we have to do in the here and
now in action and in
efficiency and more like the most
great sportsmen plus us in our life
every day we try not to
litigate other people
it may be it can be for you
you come across an office colleague in
a corridor
he walks very fast they will cross you there
you do not even say hello to me
was sure iman wants the pioneer of
it’s just that he’s focused
about what he has to do and who has us
almost not seen and we make
suppositions and movies and more one
once again banish that and
to divest
the more we will be effective then I will you
rope
it’s not easy, it’s not easy
easy at all and suddenly it makes me
think of a real anecdote a real
situation that occurred during a time
death of a san play-off match
antonio spurs in nba
the nba the american championship the san
antonio spurs us french
we know rather since it is
the team in which tony parker plays
and in fact it turns out that 1 of
play-off matches there is one of the players
who arrive flopping on the bench and
who says to the coach the coach is this
jovial man that you see on the screen
behind
and makes him coach it’s not easy then
what did gregg popovich tell him
answered that which answered him
cm1
we never said it would be easy
it’s not me I feel too
that to win a title of nba it is
not something that immediately like this is
easy and so it reminds them that 1
we never said it would be easy
then he adds two that will be more
in more difficult that’s not what we
interests most today but in
play-offs game beats a team that has
beat another so I play against one
stronger
consecutively a bit like the painting
final of roland garros and the 3 is
important
gregg popovich he then drove to
his player and 3 it’s because it’s
difficult it’s worth it
because it is difficult that it has
the value then you I do not know how
it’s going on in your life me what
I know that in mine I did not
never got anything that has
of value easily the big challenge
the big goals in our lives or in
any case in mine we get them
because precisely we must transcend
steps to face obstacles
etc etc
would I invite you to
think it’s every time
in our life we are tempted because
it comes quickly to our mouths
yeah but it’s not easy at every
once we feel like it’s coming
should try to reject it for the
simple and good reason that if I say
it is not easy
it’s a first step to then go
towards so I let go of it and I
give up
and so that prevents us from being able to
do everything we could
hope to do with our potential
and then there is something else that is not
easy actually when we spend a lot
of time with people we look more
spontaneously what is safe ti as
to our eyes at home their faults the
stuff that annoys us
sometimes irritate in the houses
in the cuts it’s the pair of
socks that drags the bowl of
toilet that is not raised that can
to be that kind of insignificant things
and we look more at that and I would like to
offer you another approach
I invite you to close your eyes
go ahead shut my eyes what I you
proposes to do is to think of a
person with whom you spend a lot
of time
someone with whom you live or
someone with whom you spend a lot
of time
it’s good you have it that I you
propose is what I invite you to
to do is to think about a beautiful
quality of this wonderful person
quality only to seven people
good you can come back you can
return to the sports teams
collectives performing just like in
our life every day what will we
help to live better together and
better perform
it’s really the idea of
much more importance to what
brings us closer that what separates us
and try more to watch his
qualities rather than its faults one in
to all and more I can watch
more that bring us closer together
the qualities of the other
the more we grow together
basketball players its big ok it’s a beautiful
picture
so all that’s simple it’s certainly
not easy I agree is what I
wanted to share with you too that’s
another idea of an author is called
stephen covey and who considers that for
him the priority of priorities in the
life
these four action verbs for him for
stephen covey it’s about living loving
learn and transmit then live I
could you speak I do it
by the way boris diaw captain
legendary team of France
jolly basketball laughing bon vivant
someone who is really in the fact
to want to share
as for the but I think
spontaneously to tony parker boris diaw
again and ronny turiaf his players who
have marked the France team who
have not been any champion nba
with their own team and that they have
decided every summer to sacrifice
their holidays for a long time for
simply share moments together
because they love each other they love each other
fraternity but they love each other and that’s
an important way to do that and the
blow all we can we can
take inspiration from them to try to see
how with our own singularity
we can define our priorities
priorities
so how do they do it ronny turiaf 2
28
a wardrobe not Norman but almost
shoulders like that hair in
all the senses a big beard someone
of very impressive how is this
that ronnie him he set up these
verbs there and his intentions there this
what he did and revered him is that he
happened was in the gift of self
he was known in nba to be a
energizer an energizer is the one that
gives energy to others he has
played with the greatest champions
kobe bryant lebron james who adored
play with him because he gave them
of the energy of self-denial
shadow work that they
allowed to magnify it is a
way to do it
boris diaw jovial laughing lovers of the
life and that is characterized in our
sport by being the most
altruistic of all boris basketball players
it is the man who adores this gesture
basket that have acquired and make a
pass and when I make a pass I’ll
transmits a mask is what I have
more valuable
all these coaches either in nba or in
France tore off their hair
tried to make it more individualistic
which is pretty incredible
fortunately none has succeeded and
for him live to love to learn
transmit in which it was
self-denial and altruism and then
obviously tony parker the star of the
tony french basketball is amazing
we found videos of him
had not ten years was being
to play like that on his small pitch
and he said when I grow up I
will play san antonio spurs in nba
incredible stop it prophet I do not
do not know it’s been 17 years
play in this club and he beats all
records is something incredible
and how did he live that he
bring it tony him it’s the leadership
that he then expresses leadership
we do not have time to sweep it away
all it’s just at home
is characterized with the idea of taking
decisions
to be present in moments
difficult when he’s going to have to go
mark the last basket to watch
the match and that some are a little
like that they do not really know what he
must give the ball to tony
parker and he knows what it will take
do and it is via this act that can
look individualism and who is
not that is the culmination of a
collective that tony parker transmits everything
what he can do
and finally the idea with which
I wish we could start again
something that marked me in
a basketball hall in a gym in
which I played
Come on, let’s go you are my
teammates my teammates one is
on the floor we are all there and in fact
do you figure that there there is a door
it’s the door that leads to the cloakroom and
above this door what we
find it’s a sign just at
above as important as if we were
on the pediment of the temple of delphes in
my eyes there is written the following thing
did you really give your maximum did
you do your best you really give
your maximum
so what is this sentence she is
important to me this sentence she
is essential because the last
year where I played in this club
I admit that I knew it would be
my last season of the times the coach
to watch a little more the others there me
I went there is quiet I pay is not
not too much and then fresh as a roach
not bad legs that I was going there
down 1
did you really give your maximum did
not really ok good good message
of humility next shot it will take
come back but it’s valid in the other
once we play in section
de france against a big club
the limoges csp the most titled club of
basketball in France who plays several
divisions above us and then there
we’re going there we go in all directions
are funds if we go and lose
with a lot of big gaps and that’s
the inverted beat the shoulders
back in and then finally the head gets
get up a little bit do you really give your
maximum
okay yeah ok so if you gave
your maximum bombshell a little front torso
what did you want to do and what I
proposes to you is that in our life to
we as the greatest champions
sports background we try to inspire
of that sentence trying to get to the
just posed did you really
give your best then do you really
give your best for what you have to
do in your mission yes but also
for and by the others did you really
give your best
thank you
[Applause]
