...and Other Winning Strategies

Produktbeschreibung

This is the story of a farm kid who grew up on a small dairy farm with the dream of playing baseball for the Tennessee Volunteers. There was no Little League, nor did his high school have a baseball program. He was left to develop his skills through creative techniques in preparation for his time to come. He became a "rock hitter", pitching up rocks and smacking them with old axe handles. The book details how he dealt with Loser's Balls and how he worked through his losses by not giving up, but "giving out" with his determined work ethic to "pocket" the negatives and climb out of the loser's bracket as he turned his Loser's Balls into "Opportunity Balls", winning many championships along the way. You will learn that losses are often disguised as foundations for upcoming victories greater than your expectations, not only in sports, but in the extra innings of the game of life. Philippians 4:13.
