What are your stereotypes?
Be bold and try something different
Don't make it a life or death struggle
Many instructions do not guarantee good results.
Instead of spending time networking, develop your own skills.
The real reason why we keep emphasizing the fundamentals
What stamina do you need?
You shouldn't just follow someone
What should be ignored must be ignored.
Don't judge talent and potential so easily.
Create an environment where people can enjoy themselves
Pace control is important in both baseball and life.
To those who are anxious and cannot rest
Don't be afraid of trouble
A good leader knows how to wait until asked.
Turn your differences into strengths
It has to be me
Give and Take in Human Relationships
To you who are a first-time administrator
Between work, organization, and me

In an age of unpredictability,
What strategy do you need now? REST!

There are many people who are anxious and cannot rest.
Especially in times like these, when so much is uncertain and unpredictable.

Coach Lee Ji-pung says.
'If you have something important to do tomorrow, think carefully about what you can do now that will really help you.'
“The point is to think carefully about whether what you are doing now will help you do tomorrow, or whether you are just doing it out of anxiety.
Most people probably do it out of anxiety.”
“Anxiety comes more when you are less prepared.
However, don't be one of those contestants who ruins the audition by getting vocal nodules from overexerting themselves to make up for their lack of preparation, or do something stupid like filling out the answer sheet because you're sleepy during the test."
According to him, rest is also a strategy.
Because recovering and maintaining condition through rest has a great influence on the results.


The author personally says that he 'hates being told to do it with all his might.'
The reason is that when it comes to life and death, there are only two outcomes: ‘dying’ and ‘living.’

Most parents and coaches tell players who fail as baseball players, "It's because you don't try hard enough," or "It's because you lack a hungry spirit."
Of course, I often give advice to live or die.
How can you succeed if you don't do it with that kind of mindset?
However, even if they fight tooth and nail, there are not many players who become pros, and even if they do become pros, there are not many who succeed.
Only 1% of players survive, the rest die as baseball players.
This means that even if you fight for your life, there is a 99% chance that you will die.
The expression "life or death" means that baseball comes first and life comes second.

Let's apply this to our ordinary lives.
The author says:
“The younger you are in society, the more likely you are to overwork your body in order to be recognized for your abilities.
If you work yourself to death, what you will end up with is burnout, which will make you lethargic and reduce your work efficiency.
There is work in life, not life in work.

Isn't there a saying that people who play well also work well?
“If you manage your stress well and enjoy leisure activities after work, your efficiency at work will also increase.”
Coach Lee Ji-pung's words may be the most necessary strategy in this day and age.


In the long race called life
The book that will become your training coach!

The author of this book, Coach Lee Ji-poong, has been with a baseball team for nearly 20 years and has witnessed the successes and failures of many players and managers up close.
In particular, looking at various leaders, he said that there are many who were much more famous stars than these people but have not yet become managers. He said that he began to think about why these people became managers and what kind of leaders the current era wants.

He also said that while taking a break from his work with a professional baseball team, he met with amateur players and learned a lot about what young students think these days and what concerns parents have.
'I wanted to share what I've learned from watching successful athletes and coaches in the professional world to help young students.
He said, "I wanted to talk about how students can become good players in the future, how they can manage their anxiety and maximize their abilities, and what types of people are recognized and successful in society even after they quit baseball."
This book is the result of my work as a coach who is “a coach that leaders want to have by their side” and “a coach who cries, laughs, and worries with his players.”

For over 20 years, Coach Lee Ji-poong has been challenging conventional wisdom and conventions in the baseball world, guiding players to achieve their best performances.
This book will be a powerful encouragement to anyone who has ever wished they had a coach to guide them through life, someone to help them finish a long race without getting tired.
