The book is part memoir, part motivational guide, covering Maddon's five seasons as the Cubs' manager.
In addition to his mantra of"try not to suck," it also includes other popular"Maddonisms," such as"do simple better," and"don't ever permit the pressure to exceed the pleasure.""Tom and I got together after the 2019 season, and we were talking about doing a book, and with that … the primary concept, and you can see that too, is to compare and contrast managing in the 1980s and the present time. That was number one," he said.
"Like I said, Tom's a brilliant writer, and what he did with what I said in the recordings, combining with his research and his own thoughts, I thought he did a wonderful job with it," Maddon said. "It's just a matter of philosophically different there at the very end, and that's what it really comes down to," he said."I'm harboring no ill feelings whatsoever. Theo and I are still friends. [New Cubs president Jed Hoyer] and I talked after I'd been let go. That's not the point. I mean, people choose to do different things after a period of time. We had a great run. To be invited to be there for five years as manager was life-altering for me and my family.
"I wasn't able to really do my normal things regarding the program, and just the setup of scheduling, and different items. So it was time. It's cool. I wish I'd stayed there longer, don't deny it. But that particular group, that group was fabulous. And it's going to be very difficult to replicate that in the near future," he said.
