What I know about Baseball, an investment in yourself
Rewarding, entertaining, and insightful, What I know about BASEBALL is what I know about LIFE contains a World Series of constructive metaphors, most offered by the author himself, several others by a lineup of well known sport figures. The author also throws a few carefully orchestrated "Change-ups" into the book as quoted from such celebrities as Mother Teresa, Henry Ford, and Mark Twain. Once read, What I know about BASEBALL . . . will be pulled from the shelve and utilized repeatedly, much in the same fashion as the pinch hitter and relief pitcher. Overall, the writings of Peter G. Doumit should help inspire the reader to face life's challenges with an optimistic perspective. As a baseball player who participated on his 77, 78, & 79 teams, I had the luxury to experience Coach Doumit's teachings and wisdom first hand. I'm looking forward to his next publication.
A book to always have around.
Growing up, as a young child I lived down the road from the Doumit's. I remember climbing his huge pine tree with Ryan and always playing baseball on the Nintendo. I grew up listening to Dave Niehaus walking me through the Mariners games on the radio. I have had the pleasure of knowing Coach Doumit and the great sport of baseball for almost my entire life. I have known Coach Doumit as a neighbor, a teacher, a great friend.... and after this book a mentor or life Coach. This book is on the shelf as a favorite and I can't wait to read the next one.
I highly recommend this book, if you have questions about how to play baseball or life, this book will make things a bit more clear. Thank you Coach, I am forever grateful!
Sincerely,

What I know About Baseball Is What I know About Life
Though I did not play baseball for Coach Doumit, I was fortunate enough to play for him in Basketball and have many fond memories of him. When I heard Coach Doumit had written a book I originally purchased the audio mp3 download just to check it out. This book has many life lessons that not only pertain to baseball and coaching philosophy but also carry over to how people should strive to live their life. I enjoyed the book so much I reordered the hard copy. This book belongs in everyones library weather you are a coach a parant or just want another perspective on how to be the best you can be.
Great Book For Business as well as Baseball and Life
I bought the book to give to my husband since he is a huge baseball fan. I ended up taking the book for myself. Each chapter has wisdom and reflections on relationships, team work and other aspects of life, along with baseball. I have found myself using the book for a retreat that I was leading along with the work that I do at the hospital. Each chapter has something for you to think about and use for your own personal growth as well.
