Book Description
All great athletes have an almost superhuman ability to excel under incredible pressure--the 98-yard touchdown drive with no time-outs remaining; the 40-foot eagle putt at the 18th hole. How do they do it? What Makes Winners Win reveals success secrets from over 100 great men and women in sports, including Bruce Jenner, Chris Evert, and Pat Riley, all of whom shared their personal experiences with veteran sportscaster Charlie Jones. Interspersed with eye-opening quotations from winners such as Tiger Woods, Mary Lou Retton, Greg Louganis, and Earvin "Magic" Johnson, What Makes Winners Win brims with advice on assessing the competition, coping with jitters, confronting life-threatening situations, entering the concentration "zone," and keeping your cool during the unexpected. Complemented by recollections from Jones's remarkable career, What Makes Winners Win trains us for excellence in every aspect of life.
Card catalog description
There is an insatiable "winning fire" burning deep inside all great athletes. This "fire" sets them apart, drives them, forces them to perform at greater heights, turns athletic challenges into personal quests. The final three-point shot at the buzzer...the ninety-eight-yard touchdown drive with no timeouts remaining...the forty-foot, downhill, double-breaking eagle putt at the eighteenth green for the title. This is what they live for, and What Makes Winners Win intimately explores that winning fire in these unique individuals. It is through their personal experiences, as shared with NBC sportscaster Charlie Jones, that we can learn how to be "winners."
