The main thing is that Johnson is joining Tom Landry as the only coaches among the 19 players and two executives who belong to the elite group of one of the NFL's most legendary franchises. Johnson was welcomed by the Hall of Fame "Triplets" who starred on his Super Bowl teams — quarterback Troy Aikman, running back Emmitt Smith and receiver Michael Irvin — for the ceremony at halftime of Saturday night’s regular-season home finale against the Detroit Lions.

Why GRIT is more Important than Intelligence or Talent for Success

Success is often associated with talent and intelligence, but there is another factor that plays a crucial role in achieving one’s potential: grit.
