Détails: Description du produit Readers of Coach Wooden’s Pyramid of Success received practical, down to earth, biblical tips for being successful in life. Readings based on Wooden’s own life experiences and spiritual development through the years revealed that success is built block by block, much like a pyramid. From confidence to faith, the building blocks contribute to moral character and form our key values. Coach Wooden and author Jay Carty would be the first to admit, it is not enough to simply read about the Pyramid of Success, one must also act on it. Enter the playbook, a pocket guide to the principles and Bible verses that Coach Wooden lived and shared for decades. Like sitting next to the legendary coach himself, working through each principle in the playbook and spending time with God will encourage and set you on the road to success.
