Synopsis
PRACTICE PERFECT, PLAY FOR FUN August "Augie" Garrido has led his baseball teams to more victories than any coach in any sport in NCAA Division I history. He is also the winner of more National Coach of the Year awards than any other college coach. Garrido's former teams at Cal State Fullerton and, more recently, at the University of Texas together have compiled a total of five College World Series championships under his leadership. But despite his unmatched record as a winner, Coach Garrido is not a win-at-all-costs coach. He teaches his players to focus on developing character, being good teammates, mastering all facets of the game, and playing with joy in the moment rather than focusing on the scoreboard. Augie teaches that the challenges faced in the batter's box or on the pitcher's mound are universal--and that the lessons learned on the diamond are applicable off the field, too. Life Is Yours to Win follows the coach's journey of self-discovery and his evolution from being driven by fear to being motivated by passion. His unique and compelling book offers this revered leader's philosophy on life and his thoughtful approach to helping young men understand both who they are and how they can be successful in their work, their relationships, and their communities. Every individual will find advice worth following including: -BE A PLAYER, NOT A PROSPECT--If you want to be considered a star in your field, whatever that may be, you need to be fully engaged. Augie once had his Labrador retriever demonstrate the joy of play to a team that needed a reminder of why they loved baseball as children. -STEP UP, SUPERMAN--Augie stages a costumed Superhero Scrimmage each Halloween to remind his players that their inner superhero is just waiting for the perfect moment when preparation meets opportunity, potential is fulfilled, and destiny is realized. -THE FEARLESS FIELD--To be successful in the often cruel game of baseball, players must master fear and other emotions so they are energized rather than paralyzed. Augie once rented a hearse and placed a casket on the pitcher's mound to help a slumping Cal State Fullerton team bury their fears and put losses behind them. -BUDDHA AT BAT--Bunting and other "small ball" skills are not as glorified as home runs and big plays, but Coach Garrido's teams are known for putting players in scoring position and winning games by following a Zen-like philosophy of claiming small victories during each at bat, in each inning that add up to winning records. Augie's coaching methods are unconventional, but his creativity and wry humor provide masterful life lessons. His insights will help you both on and off the field by providing fresh approaches to conquering fears, living with joy and passion in each moment, establishing personal principles, and appreciating the value of both losing and winning. This is a book by a beloved college coach but it is packed with Major League insights and anecdotes featuring many of baseball's greatest players and most inspiring spirits. Life Is Yours to Win will appeal to anyone who appreciates the wisdom of a proven winner in sports and in life., PRACTICE PERFECT,PLAY FOR FUN August "Augie" Garrido has led his baseball teams to more victories than any coach in any sport in NCAA Division I history.

Keep in mind this is a goodwill center and they don't check to see if all the discs are inside so it ending up missing a disc when it got here, they gave me a partial refund on it, which is appreciated but before buying I would ask them to double check the item to confirm it's as described
