Take what makes you you and use it to your advantage.
I’m happy I found this book the summer before my sophomore year of high school. I’ll tell a small story.I’m a small forward for the girls varsity basketball team at my school. I did in fact play varsity my freshman year not only lettering, but also starting 99% of the games(only not starting when I was “ineligible”).I started with four seniors, three of which had incredible talent. You can already see how I might have been a little intimidated.I like to think i have pretty good skills. I ended the season averaging about 7 points a game, when I was only supposed to be a fifth person on the court.( I know it’s not really that impressive). The entire season I struggled to maintain my dominance on the court always being pushed down by the seniors. It got to the point where I was yelling at my teammates and referees on the court. It left me somewhat scarred and unable to return to the game I had originally came in with.My mental game was destroyed even more than it already was. I have been repeatedly scolded by my couch in my summer league about my attitude and body language towards my teammates.It’s hard to change who you are. It’s hard to suppress your anger when your teammates have no interest in winning. Right now we are 0-6 in a freaking summer league. I’ve been told by every adult in my life that I need to be a leader, but how can you be a leader when nobody listens and your coach constantly shuts you down?This book has taught me that I don’t need to change who I am. I’m not broken. I’m not somebody who has to suppress their feelings to make everybody else happy. Tim Grover has written a book that tells people like me that who I am is my greatest asset. I should channel the anger I get while playing into my game. If my teammate misses a shot I should get the rebound and put it back up. If they turn the ball over I need to be the first one back on defense to stop the fast break.This book is a work of gold. It’s not a self help book if that’s what you’re looking for. It’s not going to give you step by step details of how to be the best. Grover explains his experiences training the best of the best and how he helped them get there. He gave us a blueprint for success and invited us to take the journey needed to make it. I highly suggest you purchase this book.Sorry if it’s a bit too TMI. I felt that I needed to really explain why and how this book impacted me. I hope that if you decide to purchase the book you succeed in whatever you’re striving for and I hope you’re ready to put in the work to make it happen.

Relentless in every way
Such an awesome insight into what some people can be capable of doing and how others can be successful too.I wanted to read more about the process behind training but it is a minor issue.

I read this book while going through my darkest days
I recently had surgery, and to keep this short, the post surgery recovery was far worse than what I expected it would've been.Each chapter in this book gave me the boost of confidence and mental strength that I needed to get through my situation.

Not a sports fan but still loved this book
The biggest gems in the book apply to everyone as long as you can relate to the message. It’s a good, quick read. Definitely a reminder that it’s all worth it for those of us cleaners still deep in the game.
