Author Speaks from the Heart in His Literary Debut

Commonsensical new book helps readers take inventory of their lives

Longwood, FL (PRWEB) April 17, 2008 -- There is a well-known saying that "common sense is not all that common." From My Heart (paperback, 978-1-60477-837-3), the newest release from author Roderic B. Barry Davis, Sr., shows how regular, everyday issues and situations can either be solved or changed for the better by using plain old common sense. The book will make people sit up and take inventory of their lives to see if there is anything they can do to improve their life.

Says Davis, "From My Heart helps people understand the choices they make will determine the path their life is going to (take). There are many books out that tell people what to do and how to do it, but the bottom line is people have to make the choices in their life. You just can not tell a person what to do. They need to understand what they need to do to become the best person they can be. Our life is what we make it. The better the choices we make, the better life we can have."

Davis has been coaching basketball since 1976, when he was 19 years old. Due to his coaching and interacting with youth and their parents, he has had plenty of opportunities to talk to both his players and their parents about different situations in their life. He soon discovered his love of coaching was not just because of his love of the sport, but also because he was able to help others deal with everyday issues and life situations. When he spoke with them, not having the time to think of a politically correct response or a perfect answer, God blessed him to be able to speak to them from his heart, which is exactly what he does in From My Heart.
