I got a heads-up today on Indianapolis Colts head coach Tony Dungy’s new book entitled Uncommon: Finding Your Path to Significance (due out February 2009). This is the follow-up to The New York Times #1 best-seller Quiet Strength: The Principles, Practices, and Priorities of a Winning Life which sold more than a million copies and is one of the best-selling sports-related titles in history. Coach Dungy will once again partner with Tyndale House Publishers on this new book he considers to be his legacy message:
“Our young men today are falling into a trap. Society is telling them material success is what’s important, but if we buy into that idea, we can spend a lifetime chasing that success and never really have the positive impact on people that would make our lives truly significant.”
Uncommon: Finding Your Path to Significance reveals lessons on achieving significance that coach Dungy has learned from his parents, his athletic and coaching careers, his mentors, and his journey with God. The book particularly focuses on what it means to be a man of significance in a culture that is offering young men few positive role models.
“uncommon” by tony dungy is going to be a another really awsome bestseller with lots of top life lessons. I can hardly wait for its release. all online bookstores are taking pre orders for tonys new book please pre order it and get an extra copy for a friend family member or soldier serving over seas or someone in college. please tell your pastor that it would make a great item for a church wide Bible study and tell your church youth director about this book also. and please e mail your friends and family also.
