Notes From Fred

This past Friday, I had the pleasure of giving a presentation to the University of Wisconsin Badger Inquiry on Sport in their study of sports leadership. I had a great time talking with the group about how to recognize and seize opportunities and lead in this time of change.

Below are a few photos from the fun evening. 
Take care.

It's been one month since publication!

12/2/2021

Well, today marks one month since my book, Making Your Own Luck: From a Skid Row Bar to Rebuilding Indiana University Athletics, was officially published, and I have been having a ball participating in its roll-out. We’ve already put on 18 events with various partners, and the book has additionally generated positive attention through numerous television interviews, newspaper articles, podcasts, and the like. Click the image below for an example from the Indianapolis Star. 

My publisher is very pleased with sales and has already ordered a third printing. The book is proving to be a popular Christmas gift.

​Thank you for your interest in and support of the book.

Take care.

Take care.

Perhaps appropriately for my final video of this series, this week’s precept is: When you go out, go out the right way.

October 18: Precept Nine

Today’s Precept Nine I also learned from IU Track Coach Ron Helmer: You don’t have to feel your best to do your best. Don’t build in excuses to fail. Succeed even in the face of perceived adversities.
Take care.
