“I have worked on nearly 500 films during my 40 years in the movie business, where only great product endures. I thought I knew all the keys to winning and losing, success and failure. This entertaining, insightful, inspiring book taught me that I still have so much to learn…. And I better get to work learning it.”

“Each time I talk to Paul, I walk away from our conversation having learned something - no matter how quick the interaction. And his book is written the same way. Quick-hitting and poignant chapters with a meaningful takeaway for athletes looking to make the most of their abilities. Paul understands the mettle and grit it takes to go from amateur to pro, from pro to elite, from elite to executive - and the need to occasionally slow down to take care of the things in your life that matter most. That’s what, in part, makes Paul special… that’s the way of the champion.”
— Paul “Triple H” Levesque, fourteen-time World Champion and Chief Content Officer of WWE
