  • The Seven Secrets of the Silver Shoes: Principles for Success On and Off the Field

    Joe Washington

    Paperback (Tate Publishing, Aug. 24, 2015)
    Few college players in history have created the expectations and high level of excitement like Joe Dan Washington, Jr., forever known in Oklahoma Sooner football history as "Little Joe." When he donned the silver shoes as a freshman, he electrified Oklahoma fans. Barry Switzer, said, "From the moment he ran the ball in practice we knew he would be special. I had never seen and still haven't seen anyone who could bring an entire crowd to its feet, leaving them awe-struck. Even while gaining just a handful of yards his runs were absolutely spectacular. I mean every time he touched the ball, we expected it to be showtime. He found seams to run that no one else saw, darted away from towering linemen and stutter-stepped his way down the field, but it was his ability to hurdle and leap over opponents that made us all hold our breath." Joe Washington was one of the biggest reasons for two back-to-back National Championships for the Sooners in 1974 and 1975. He made every All-American team including the Upi, Ap, Walter Camp Foundation, The Sporting News, and the Nea list. He came in 3rd for the Heisman Trophy behind Archie Griffin from Ohio State and Usc's Anthony Davis, finishing his college career with 4,071 rushing yards, 39 touchdowns to his credit and 19 plus games of 100 yards. "That is even more incredible," says Switzer, "because Little Joe only played half of every game; we were usually that far ahead by half-time." A first round draft pick (#4) in 1976, Joe Washington went on to have a stellar career in the Nfl, winning a Super Bowl with the Washington Redskins in 1982. This book is a glimpse into Washington's simple take on life; a home-spun philosophy and genuine humility that has served him well through the years and still impacts young athletes and all privileged to know one of the great Sooner legends of all time.

Images of his release were broadcast across the world and inspired hope of a better future for the country. When he left prison, his fist raised in a victory salute and welcomed by an enthusiastic crowd. His last speech before he was sentenced was at the forefront of everyone’s minds.The extraordinary story of Nelson Mandela – who also went by the name Madiba, in homage to his ancestors’ clan – was far from over. After his release, he played an important role in the negotiations between his party, the ANC, and the South African regime, which resulted in the dismantling of apartheid and the organization of the country’s first democratic elections. When he was elected president of the new “Rainbow Nation” in 1994, he faced the difficult task of leading South Africa down the long and bumpy road to reconciliation, assuaging the fears of the country’s white citizens and fulfilling the hopes of its black citizens.The book contains the following chapters:Chapter 1 - Early Life and EducationChapter 2 - Johannesburg RunawayChapter 3 - Rainbow NationChapter 4 - Robben IslandChapter 5 - The Treason TrialChapter 6 - The Sharpeville MassacreChapter 7 - Death of Apartheid, Presidency, and LegacyChapter 8 - Rules for SuccessChapter 9 - A Chequered Political RecordChapter 10 - Death
  • The Hundred Dollar Bill Man: A Day with Benjamin Franklin

    Tim D. Washington

    language (Content Arcade Publishing, April 3, 2019)
    Have you ever had a dream that seemed so real, even though it couldn’t possibly be true? Here is your chance to dive in to a place where dreams become reality and where logic doesn’t exist. As a young boy I had a wish to meet a great man I looked up on to, a man that inspired me to become a better person and spend my life in the best way I can. Yet I also had a wish to show him my life, where I am, what I do and how are things here. Even though he probably knows it all, it’s fun connecting to the people you admire, even when it’s just fun, games and endless curiosity for life. What I truly want to share with all of you, was my realization that life is less about logic and more about play. Benjamin spoke with an eternal feeling of peace, like he was always here, like I just happened to see him, even though he knows everything there is to know about me. But we don’t look for logic, we are too busy playing and enjoying life. And in the same time, we are in the process of becoming a better version of ourselves. If you remember to breathe, and sometimes hug a tree, every forest will become magical. You just have to dream, dream and dream.My dream is a symbol that all dreams eventually become true, so be very careful what you wish for, for it might come true! There are many things you can learn from this short story, and I don’t want to give them all away, I just want you to look closely for the hidden doors that are scattered around between lines of text. Hidden doors that lead to the wisdom you seek.
