“In my thirty-plus years of working with the greatest competitors of our time, from Michael Jordan and Kobe and Dwayne Wade and Charles Barkley and countless others, to CEOs and elite achievers in all walks of life, I’ve seen Winning in all its glorious generosity, and all its excruciating cruelty. One day it wears a halo. The next day it has fangs.
You don’t get to decide which it will be.
You can only chase it, and if you’re willing to pay the price, you might catch it. Briefly. …
For more than thirty years, I’ve witnessed Winning at the highest level, and experienced losing at a level you can’t comprehend. I’ve seen winners lose and losers win. I’ve tasted both extremes. My chase continues.
So does yours.
Let me take you into the world of elite cutthroat competition, and show you how to navigate a road that can’t be found on any GPS. There is no map, no light, no pavement.
It’s the road to paradise, and it starts in hell.
You have been chosen. Not by others, but by yourself.
Welcome to Winning.”
~ Tim Grover from Winning
This is the second book by Tim Grover we’ve featured.
The first one is called Relentless: From Good to Great to Unstoppable.
I thought THAT book was intense—until I read this one.
As per the introduction blurb up there, Tim Grover has worked with THE most elite basketball players in history. In this book, he shares his fierce wisdom in the context of stories about Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant as he RELENTLESSLY makes the point that “Winning” (with a capital “W”) is, shall we say, not for the faint of heart.
Don’t get this book unless you’re willing to go for an intense ride with an intense human being.
If you’re feeling inspired to feel the INTENSITY of an ALL IN human being, I think you’ll love it. (Get a copy here.)
As you’d expect, the book is packed with Big Ideas.
Let’s get to work.
