Throughout his fascinating 45-year career, Coach Mike Jarvis has experienced what it feels like to be on top of the world. He also knows what it's like on the other end of college basketball's vast spectrum (and every place in between). Through it all, he has come to some significant conclusions about the true meaning of life. In the book Everybody Needs A Head Coach, Jarvis shares stories from his incredible run as a championship high school coach and his successful years as the leader of four NCAA Division I programs that have included interactions with high profile figures such as Red Auerbach, Patrick Ewing, Michael Jordan, Ron Artest, Mike Krzyezewski, Adrian Branch, Sam Jones, Rumeal Robinson, and Matt Damon. But more importantly, Coach Jarvis and co-author Chad Bonham turn those experiences into 23 life-affirming lessons that reflect relevant biblical principles such as determination and forgiveness.

Look back in your life and ask yourself this question, "Wasn’t it when you had a good coach in your life that you experienced the most accelerated growth you've ever experienced?" Then why don't you have a coach today? You'll be hard pressed to find one top athlete, Olympian, or top CEO who doesn't have a skilled expert in their life who finds and fills in their missing structures, has conversations with them that they don't want to have, makes them do things they don't want to do, so that ultimately they can become something they didn't even believe they could become. Everybody Needs a Coach in Life will show you how to bust through both your business and personal ceilings, aggressively expand your territory, and stimulate your growth in ways you can't even imagine.

In this hybrid-memoir, inspired by his faith in Christ, Silvio takes a very honest, open-minded, and intrinsic look at the first thirty-three years of his existence. In this Volume I; he chronicles his first twenty-three years. From birth, through the early days, then through adolescence and the rough teenage years, up until when he graduates from college, Silvio examines why he made certain decisions along the way and how those decisions effected the trajectory of his life’s path. In Volume II, Silvio takes a very introspective journey through his adult life, after college. He shares his experiences in the professional world, as well as his very personal adventures in faith, family, friendship, or as Silvio refers to it; brotherhood, and of course; love. He ends Volume II at age thirty-three, a very pivotal point in his life when he found himself at yet another impasse both professionally and romantically. This memoir pays constant tribute to those who impacted Silvio amidst those first thirty-three years. From many family members, to friends, teachers, coaches and pastors, Silvio details very specific memories that took place with those influential individuals. How much better of a place would the world be if we all not only looked for the positives in the experiences we’ve shared with others, but we took the time to document those experiences and told people what they meant to us and what we learned from them?
