Be Quick But Don't Hurry
By Andrew
Hill and John Wooden
Simon & Schuster, 2001 - 192
pages
Be Quick But Don't Hurry is a quick read, a pretty good
book and a different take on John Wooden's Pyramid of Success
that he utilized in coaching the most successful teams in the
history of college basketball (UCLA in the 60's and 70's.)
Mr. Hill played for Wooden during his amazing stretch of
championships as a backup. The book is basically a reflection
of how, after 30 years, Mr. Hill recognized how much he
learned from Coach Wooden without knowing he was being taught
anything at all. He discusses how the Secrets of the pyramid
are transferable to teaching, business, management and even
friendships.
The book is very personal and well written. If you are
trying to become a leader or want to learn the keys to success
you would gain quite a bit from reading this book. Most
importantly, just like basketball, you have to apply these
secrets until they become second nature for them to have a
profound impact on your life.
