A life-changing guide to achieving your goals, by the 2013 NCAA
champion college basketball coach and #1 New York Times bestselling
author.
Rick Pitino is famous as one of the most dynamic and successful
basketball coaches of our time, leading the University of
Louisville Cardinals to the NCAA basketball championship in 2013,
and is renowned for writing the #1 New York Times bestselling
success and leadership book, Success is a Choice.In his new book,
The One-Day Contract, Pitino details his key to success, on the
court and in life: to focus on making the most of each day, by
creating a contract with yourself. Coach Pitino was able to turn
Louisville into NCAA champions by applying this idea to everything
he and the team did--every practice, every recruiting visit, every
game preparation, every scouting report, every instruction that he
gave players and coaches, and everything he did himself. Each day
became just as important as reaching the national championship, and
so, by honoring the one-day contract, he and Louisville moved
through adversity toward their goal.In this inspiring and practical
guide, Coach Rick Pitino illustrates how to set your own one-day
contract, and follow through to honor it for each day, each goal,
and each interaction with another person. Pitino shows how to:
- Establish focus as a discipline in everything you do: planning,
strategy, priorities, and career advancement.
- Discover the true key to success: not ambition, not wealth, not
power, but humility.
- Use technology wisely--but don't let it replace personal
connection with the people you work and live with.
- Own up to your problems, tell the truth and they will become
part of your past. Lie and they become part of your future.
- Make small changes and add value to every minute of your
life.
The One-Day Contract will reshape the way you approach your job,
your goals, and your life.
When we were young, we worshipped stars, gleaming long-limbed
godsframed in the act of impossible flight. For a time we tried to
follow, to carve out our own piece of sky with a butter-smooth arc
of an arm and a Spalding ball glued to the fingertips… Seen from
a British perspective, The Spalding Suite gets to the heart and
soul of the gravity-defying game and delves into the hopes and
dreams of those who play it. From the fleeting high of the score
and the robust camaraderie of the team, to the poignant lows of a
body too worn to play the game.
A young teen boy takes on the journey of a full season of
basketball. He has great skill, passion for the game, and heart.
His amazing basketball skills and his great personality lead him
and his team to great fortune.
