This book provides a lot of wisdom that I think would be great for our youth and perhaps young men in sports, school or those just getting started with life. A lot of wisdom presented in a way that could be beneficial for someone who likes a more direct approach to motivation. The tone of the quotes in the book has the feel of listing to a football coach in a locker room.
