It’s been said that the legendary basketball coach John Wooden often started each basketball season by teaching his players to properly tie their shoes. The reason is simple. If you don’t tie your shoes correctly, players develop blisters and other potential foot problems. By mastering a “basic” skill, Wooden led his teams to national success.
