| About the Book | |
|
9 in 9 is about an opportunity where I got to play every single position on the baseball diamond in one game, all nine positions in nine innings. The book details each inning and what happened throughout the game on that special night. Once you start reading you will find that although the book is about a single game, the message in the book is much different. It isn’t about playing each position, instead it’s about nine different life lessons I have learned from the game of baseball. You’ll encounter my personal experiences on patience, perspective, inexpensive and expensive experience, taking advantage of opportunities, how hard work separates you from people who are more talented, believing in yourself, controlling what you can control, being comfortable being uncomfortable, and staying in the moment. In reading this book I hope to challenge the way you think about things in your life and help you to believe in the power of your dreams. If you believe in yourself and you work hard, anything is possible.
