- Jim Tressel, The Winners Manual For The Game Of Life
This quote form Jim Tressel's book The Winners Manual For The Game Of Life really caught my attention. It is such a profound and simple statement that I think sometimes we forget what life is all about. Life is about relationships. How we deal with relationships. How we repair and mend the ones that have fallen in disrepair. How we strengthen those that we truly enjoy. How we basically treat each other with respect and conscience.
Simple. Right? Yes and No. Fundamentals are really difficult. We would long for the easy life - perfecting the fundamentals in any game is difficult because that means no short cuts. It means dedication, persistance, enjoyment and love for what we do day in and day out. How many people can say they get up each morning and see how to perfect the fundamentals in their life? Not many.
The Winners Manual For The Game Of Life really gives some good, sound, and thought provoking fundamentals on life. This book is not for those who are looking for the quick and easy way in life. If you are looking to improve and perfect the fundamentals in your game - sales, stay-at-home mom or dad, entreprenuer, manager, executive, worker, etc., this is a good book to take a deeper look into you and what you bring to the table.
Life is all about balance. How do we keep that delicate balance between family, work, and friends? How do we live a well rounded life? Give The Winners Manual For The Game Of Life a read to delve into such a serious subject. This one is definately not for the faint of heart.
