An absolute must-read! The chapter on strength was eye-opening as I appreciated the authors’ ability to peel back the layers on the traditional view on strength going beyond the physical, and highlighting the mental and emotional components. Given the trials and tribulations that some of us experience throughout our lifetime, being of strong mind, heart, and spirit is key to survival. Kuddos to the author for providing a blueprint!

From Grit to Greatness is an inspiring, thought provoking book. It provides a framework, mindset and lifestyle. The author provides pillars to understand, nurture, and improve one’s self. I agree with the reviews. However, I want to highlight other valuable aspects. The author’s word choice, writing style, and structure made this book hard to put down. It’s a powerful short read. I appreciated the different connections to religious texts, stories, and quotes. I’m still thinking about his perspective on an athlete’s life. Lastly, it’s refreshing that he did not force his militant grind philosophy. He gives the reader the choice. This book is great for different situations in life. It’s one I will reread and revisit to stay grounded or improve.

This book is a true gem for anyone who has the desire to live a life that reflects their true potential. It not only provides practical advice but also delves into the psychology of self-growth with holistic outlooks and strategies. The author’s insights are enlightening, and the real-life success stories woven throughout the book are incredibly inspiring. I highly recommend From Grit to Greatness to anyone who demands more from their lives and themselves.

Great quick read. Lots of great nuggets of information. Full of one-liners that anyone can apply to their life immediately. I appreciate that each chapter includes practical advice with ways to put the principle into practice. I also appreciate that each chapter has a divergence section, providing a slightly opposing view to the principle. The examples are wonderful as well.
