Not just for coaches or players! Oct 14, 2009 Wooden was perhaps the greatest basketball coach ever. His basketball wisdom and ideas on excellence and leadership development are timeless. All of his books are must reads for a basketball coach and most players.
But this little blue book is for anyone. It truly is the wisdom of Wooden.
I don't really know how else to describe it. This book is not so much about basketball as it is life and how to do it the right way.
I gave this little book to every player who graduated from my program. My copy is beat up, underlined, dog-eared, and highlighted. I cannot tell you how many times I have read it and learned something from it with each reading.
The only book I know of that has more wisdom and allows you to learn from each reading is the Bible.

Game Strategies and Tactics for Basketball: Bench Coaching for Success
Must have for any coach! Jun 11, 2009 This book is one that all coaches should own. It not only teaches some important basketball lessons, but more importantly, life lessons. Coaches have a great influence on their players. This book will be a great help for any coach. John Wooden is the epitome of a great coach.

amazing Apr 24, 2009 One of the best books I've ever read. I received it as a gift a couple of years ago, and I now give this as a gift to almost everyone. (It's not about basketball).... it's about LIFE

A master teacher's thinking on life and work Nov 16, 2008 This small book by one of the most renowned sports figures of all time has less to do with Coach Wooden's winning records as a player and coach as it does with his broader views on what defines a "winner" - in attitude, in action, and in thought. As applicable in the business world as it is for athletics, this book, reflecting the author's example, is deeply profound and profoundly modest. Highly recommended.
Wooden's Words Sep 08, 2008 I felt that this was a nice "thought for a day" book. He offers some very sound and basic ways of living with values. It is a quick read and enjoyable.
