Bill Belichick Announces New Book 'The Art of Winning' Set for Release on May 20
January 31, 2025
Few people in sports history know more about winning than Bill Belichick, and he's now sharing some of his secrets in the form of a book.
The legendary coach announced Friday on his Instagram account that he wrote a book titled The Art of Winning: Lessons From My Life in Football.
"My hope with this book is that you learn about what I learned in the NFL about sustained success, leadership, and what it means to be a team player," he wrote. "You can make use of those extractable lessons in your own life, no matter what type of TEAM you are apart of."
Amazon lists the book with a May 20 release date and a hardcover price of $35.
Belichick's life in football has taken many twists and turns and includes time as the defensive coordinator of the New York Giants and New York Jets in addition to his time as the head coach of the Cleveland Browns and New England Patriots.
He is also starting a new chapter this year as he turns his attention to the college game as the head coach of the North Carolina Tar Heels.
But Belichick is best known for his time as the head coach of the Patriots from 2000 through 2023. All he did during that span was win six Super Bowls and reach three others as part of one of the sport's most dominant dynasties alongside quarterback Tom Brady.
Readers can surely expect plenty of stories from his New England days that provide more insight into his relationship with Brady and other key players, as well as team owner Robert Kraft. There may even be some juicy tidbits considering he and Kraft haven't always seemed to be on the best of terms.
Coaching in the NFL for as long as Belichick did leads to a lot of lessons, and he will look to share them in his book while still applying them as he begins his collegiate coaching career.
