Dugout Wisdom isn't about successful Baseball personnel - It's about successful Men in Baseball Uniforms!! |
Over my 30 Year career Coaching in Professional and Olympic Sport (24 in Baseball and the last 6 in Cricket)I've encountered countless 'How To' Books. Unquestionably though 'Dugout Wisdom' is far and away the BEST I've ever perused!
Each and every Page is a new and exciting experience of common sense methods on how any person can live their life to their absolute fullest. It's TRULY a life changing Book with life changing concepts - All one has to do to is apply them and they're guaranteed to flourish in their personal and professional journey!
Dan Migala should be highly complimented on this innovative and highly inspiring Book of LIFE LESSONS!
Sincerely,
Mike Young

The ultimate father-son book! |
Each night when I tuck my young boys into their bunk bed, they ask if I will 'sit with them'... some nights my patience is fried, but many nights I say 'ok, get to sleep and I'll sit down here for a few minutes.' I open the closet door a bit and lie on the floor of their room, with a sliver of light allowing me to open up a book and read.
It has become one of my favorite times of the day... a rare 15 minutes of complete quiet while two of my favorite people fall fast asleep nearby.
Recently it has allowed me to read nightly excerpts from Dugout Wisdom and can't help but think what a perfect book it is, in many ways... but especially for those few quiet minutes of my day. It is that rare kind of book that sparks a new thought, re-focuses me on what's important or inspires me in some small way. It also reminds me of the role that baseball has played in bonding me with my father as well as with my own sons. Great job! I recently bought an extra copy to send to my dad... I guess I'll have to buy another couple soon to inscribe to my sons.

Truly a life lesson & a gift to share! |
|
Dan Migala's book was truly inspiring and a wonderful gift to share with so many that are struggling with attaining their dreams. It was important to read that so many of the players struggled through adversities but never gave up. Many people today need to know that anything you really want always comes with a price. I think Dan's book showed that well. I wish it could be translated into a book for young children to read and learn from as well. Maybe that dream is already happening! |

Brilliantly uplifting |
|
If you need something to get you motivated in your dreams - this is a great place to start. The stories in this book really make you feel like you can do anything if you just put your heart into it. Dan does a great job compiling these stories into such a unique book. |

dugout wisdom - life lessons from baseball |
From some of the most important and influential figures in baseball's history comes their thoughts, fears, triumphs and tragedies all wrapped up in one book. Dan captured their stories to let us know that our baseball heroes experienced the same emotions that we all have felt, but also to give us some insight into our own lives. A truly inspiration book.
