Every Play Every Day

Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
Now in its third printing, see what it took to become the shortest player in Notre Dame football history to carry the ball in a game. Every Play Every Day takes you on the intimate journey of former Notre Dame tailback Timmy O'Neill, who, at 5' 6" and 165 lbs, wasn't the prototypical Division I college football player. Experience the journey from the dorm room to the classroom, from the locker room to the training room, and everywhere in between. Read about the incredible experience of being a college football walk-on; the joy, the pain, and the raw emotion characterizing the inner fight athletes deal with on a daily basis. This book details the lessons learned through O'Neill's five years as a Notre Dame walk-on, and shows what can happen to anyone who refuses to accept the limitations imposed by others. "As a college and professional football player, I've learned that nobody is ever going to hand you the life you imagined, you have to out and fight for it. That's the message conveyed in Timmy's story. Timmy's dream was to play football for Notre Dame, but not matter what you dream is, Every Play Every Day will inspire you to get there." --Tim Brown, 1987 Heisman Trophy winner, NFL 9-time Pro Bowl wide receiver "It's hard enough to play college football as a scholarship player. It takes a rare individual to succeed at Notre Dame as a walk-on. Timmy O'Neill succeeded doing this. You will enjoy his journey." --Lou Holtz, Only college football coach to lead six different programs to bowl games and the only coach to guide four different programs to the final top 20 rankings "Every Play Every Day is filled with Timmy's passion for life and his desire to share what he's learned with others. His language is plain and his message is clear. Timmy understands that hard work and a positive attitude are vital to success in life." --Sean Astin, Star of Rudy and Lord of the Rings "Every Play Every Day is more about not accepting other people's expectations for your life than it is about football. The experiences chronicled in this book truly to apply to everyone." --Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh, C.S.C., President Emeritus, University of Notre Dame

Pages : 290
Book Description
Foreword by Fearne Cotton. The Joy Journal for Magical Everyday Play by Laura Brand showcases fifty engaging activities for creative, everyday playtime to encourage a connection to nature, sense of joy and bonding with your kids, while nurturing your own inner child too. The activities are mindful, creative and, crucially, very easy things to make and do with children that you will enjoy as much as they will. From moon sand to flower soup and nature wands there are short, long, loud and quiet activities to take you from morning to evening – each with a focus on the risk factors: volume of effort vs child engagement and mess. Laura Brand has been testing these while writing and raising her two-under-two, and shares the happy accidents and road blocks she’s hit along the way in honest, open and often funny introductions to each of the exercises. This beautiful handbook will help you to inject fun, mindfulness and craft into bath-times, rainy afternoons, long journeys and play dates and to resist (as much as possible!) the temptation to succumb to screen time. Chapters take you through the seasons, with indoor, outdoor and on-the-go activities that are easy and fun every day. The Joy Journal will arm you with a variety of fun, focussed activities made with store cupboard and easily foraged supplies that you can turn to time and again.
