I don’t write because I’ve figured it out.

This is a great listen for any coach or teacher! Fascinating to learn Eddie Jones once graded papers. How many other legendary coaches started as classroom teachers?

[Doug Lemov @Doug_Lemov]

My interview with coaching legend Eddie Jones. We talk checking for understanding, teach building and difficult conversations.

Saddened to hear about the passing of my 1st Track Coach Gerald Russell. I once asked him if he thought I could break 9 minutes for 2 miles and he said "I will never limit you." Wise coach! https://t.co/mAfWUFRrYB

[Patrick McHugh @patmchughAD]

Loved @GeorgeRaveling new book written w/ @RyanHoliday Especially enjoyed chapters "To Study Books" "To Keep Hope Alive" "To Be A Friend" & "To Be an Answer" It confirms the power of a coach to do good in the world. Will be sharing with others on our coaching staff.

I’m overjoyed to announce that my book, What You’re Made For, hits shelves Tuesday, March 4, 2025! It’s available for preorder now wherever books are sold.

In my 87 years navigating this beautiful journey called life, this project stands as one of my greatest honors. Partnering with my dear friend and mentor @RyanHoliday has been nothing short of transformative.

More than a decade ago, meeting Ryan felt like hitting the lottery. What began as a simple introduction by @CoachShakaSmart has grown into a remarkable friendship—a bond between generations united by a shared mission: to live uncommonly and make a lasting positive impact on the lives of others.

What You're Made For is more than just a project by Ryan and me—it's a book created with you in mind and for anyone who dreams of not just surviving, but truly thriving in life.

Whether you’re an athlete, a leader, a parent, a student, or simply seeking to mold your raw talent into greatness, What You’re Made For is a blueprint for your life.

I’m deeply grateful for your support and thrilled for you to join Ryan and I on this journey!
