Another important value that Cousy discusses is perseverance. He believes that we should never give up on our dreams, no matter how difficult things may seem. Cousy writes, "There will be times in your life when you will face challenges. But if you never give up, you will eventually overcome them. The Celtics faced a lot of adversity over the years, but we never gave up. We kept fighting, and we eventually won 11 NBA championships."

Finally, Cousy emphasizes the importance of gratitude. He believes that we should be grateful for everything we have, and that we should never take anything for granted. Cousy writes, "I am so grateful for the life I have been given. I have been blessed with a wonderful family, a successful career, and the opportunity to make a difference in the world. I am truly a lucky man."
