A Champion's Mind: Lessons from a Life in Tennis
Pete Sampras is arguably the greatest tennis player ever, a man whose hard-nosed work ethic led to an unprecedented number one world ranking for 286 weeks, and whose prodigious talent made possible a record-setting fourteen Grand Slam titles. While his more vocal rivals sometimes grabbed the headlines, Pete always preferred to let his racket do the talking. Until now. In A Champion’s Mind, the tennis great who so often exhibited visible discomfort with letting people “inside his head” finally opens up. An athletic prodigy, Pete resolved from his earliest playing days never to let anything get in the way of his love for the game. But while this single-minded determination led to tennis domination, success didn’t come without a price. The constant pressure of competing on the world’s biggest stage—in the unblinking eye of a media machine hungry for more than mere athletic greatness—took its toll. Here for the first time Pete speaks freely about what it was like to possess what he calls “the Gift.” He writes about the personal trials he faced—including the death of a longtime coach and confidant—and the struggles he gutted his way through while being seemingly on top of the world. Among the book’s most riveting scenes are an early devastating loss to Stefan Edberg that led Pete to make a monastic commitment to delivering on his natural talent; a grueling, four-hour-plus match against Alex Corretja during which Pete became seriously ill; fierce on-court battles with rival and friend Andre Agassi; and the triumphant last match of Pete’s career at the finals of the 2002 U.S. Open. In A Champion’s Mind, one of the most revered, successful, and intensely private players in the history of tennis offers an intimate look at the life of an elite athlete..

Transforming Children into Spiritual Champions
No one can deny that our culture is opposed to Christian values, and the influences bombarding our children's moral development can be deadly. But few parents and church leaders realize how critical it is to start developing a child's biblical worldview from the very earliest years of life. The problem is complex: parents who themselves did not receive early spiritual training leave their children's training to the church. Yet the church often focuses on older children-not realizing that a child's moral development is set by the age of nine. The answer is for churches to recognize the need to come alongside parents to provide them biblical worldview training, parenting information, counseling, etc., that will equip them to help their children become the spiritually matuare Church of tomorrow. Profiles presented of churches who are effectively ministering to children and winning the war our enemy is waging against them\. Research orientated books on childhood spiritual development. Raising Heaven Bound Kids in a Hell Bent World by Eastman Curtis / What Your Kids Need to Know About God and When by John Trent / Introducing the Spiritual Side of Parenting by Ron Clarkson / Bringing Up Boys by James Dobson.

A Dark Champion (Brotherhood of the Sword, Book 1)
Fearless men, their allegiance is to one another, to the oppressed, and to the secret society known as the Brotherhood of the Sword—and they must never surrender to the passionate yearnings of their noble hearts. A Lady of Love Beautiful, peace-loving Rowena knows that Stryder of Blackmoor is a warrior, and is therefore a man to be shunned. But something burns in the eyes of this powerful knight that she has never seen in others of his kind: a tenderness, and a need to love and be loved. Yet to enter his world would be madness—against every principle by which she has lived her life—so she must resist the yearning that would draw her into his arms. A Man of War Duty bound to battle for right, Stryder has never desired the comforts of home and hearth—until he gazed upon the exquisite face and form of the incomparable Rowena. He dares not succumb to her sensuous charms, for Stryder is a man sworn to know no love. But when treachery and danger threaten, the noble knight must stand as the unsuspecting lady's champion—though his actions could cost him his honor, his heart. . . and his forbidden dream of happiness. .

Coaching Salespeople into Sales Champions: A Tactical Playbookfor Managers and Executives
"Winning in sales is no different than winning in life. If you embrace Keith's philosophy, you can certainly expect to win in all areas of your life, while making a profound and measurable impact on your salespeople's performance and attitude."--Dr. Denis Waitley, Best Selling Author of The Seeds of Greatness and The Psychology of Winning "There is no other single activity to boost sales that works better than sales coaching and Keith's book, Coaching Salespeople into Sales Champions, is the best ever written on how to do it well."--Brian Tracy, Author, Getting Rich Your Own Way Technology has not only changed the way companies sell but the way managers build and develop their team. With a savvy, younger generation to manage and fewer resources to do so, managers have less face time with their staff. As more companies transition to a virtual team environment, it's essential for managers to learn how to quickly and efficiently coach, develop, motivate and retain their top performers at a distance; over the telephone and via the internet. Today's sales managers may know how to sell but most don't know how to effectively develop their salespeople. Even with the right knowledge and resources, they're usually too bogged down in daily challenges, deadlines, and personal responsibilities to get it all done. As a result, advancing their salespeople takes a back seat to more immediate problems, keeping sales teams mired in mediocrity. Coaching Salespeople into Sales Champions is an essential playbook that you can reference daily to develop your own executive sales coaching skills; the missing discipline amongst today's leaders. Using a tactical coaching system that is easy to deploy on a consistent basis, this book shows you how to realize the potential of your sales team- and retain your top performers. Packed with real case studies, a 30-Day Turnaround Strategy, coaching templates and a library of powerful coaching questions, this is the ultimate practical sales coaching resource for sales managers, executives, and business owners. Tap into the experience of a master coach. Discover step by step how to become an effective and influential sales coach, and turn your people into motivated, successful sellers. - Turn underperformers into super-achievers; fast.
- Attract and retain top sales talent by developing your own internal coaching program.
- Coach your salespeople to become self-motivated through the Art of Enrollment, the new language of leadership.
- Handle difficult salespeople and determine when to let them go without collateral damage.
- Eliminate time consuming distractions and the heavy burden of dependency that traditional management styles create.
- Empower salespeople to solve their own problems and become fully accountable for their success using the L.E.A.D.S. Coaching System - rather than being dependant on you.
You will also discover how you can: - Leverage your personal strengths as well as the hidden talents of your team.
- Communicate, connect and captivate your team during each meeting or conversation.
- Get people into action without resistance.
- Eliminate hours of your workload by identifying and eliminating the time killers in order to focus on the non negotiable activities you can consistently engage in that yield the greatest ROI.
Plenty of books espouse new management and leadership theories for managers, but few show you how to actually coach your people on a daily basis in a way that creates measurable change. Coaching Salespeople into Sales Champions provides that proven methodology and tactical strategy for coaching which bridges the gap between theory and execution. Now, you can implement a systematic approach to develop a world class sales team and achieve the meaningful, long lasting results you want-today..
