Book excerpt: Professional tennis player Arantxa Sanchez-Vicario may lack the power and pace of her opponents, but anyone who claims she lacks a weapon is clearly overlooking her heart. Throughout her accomplished career, noted for its longevity and consistency, she has proven her unmatched determination is as potent as any crosscourt forehand or serve in the game. While her tremendous hustle and fight is obvious to any tennis enthusiast, anyone outside of the sport can recognize, appreciate, and be inspired by the Spaniard's indefatigable will to win. Always considered not big enough, not strong enough, not aggressive enough, she always finds a way to battle through. Possessing a perpetual positive attitude and inner source of confidence, she truly believes she can win until the last point against her has been played. With the generous off court character to match, she is an inspiration in every sense of the word. Here is someone who has shown what is possible with just sheer effort, sheer will. Her story is an empowering source of strength and a lesson in dedication and persistence.

Book excerpt: The conditioning begins early in our lives. Great achievements will bring lasting happiness and fulfillment; great achievements form the bedrock of stable self-esteem and strong character; great achievements will become the foundation for a successful life. If these well-intentioned promises are true, why does winning never seem to be enough? In The Only Way to Win, Jim Loehr draws upon two decades of work with Fortune 500 executives; world-class athletes such as Monica Seles, Dan Jansen, and Eric Lindros; and other high achievers at the Human Performance Institute (HPI) to reveal surprising insights about achievement motivation. Specifically, Loehr finds that the blind pursuit of external achievement often results in emptiness, addiction, and, ironically, poor performance. It’s not really about what you achieve, he argues, it’s about who you become as a consequence of the chase. From the bestselling author of On Form, comes a compelling, practical, and hopeful read filled with relatable stories and useful exercises. The Only Way to Win will serve as a powerful wake-up call for business leaders, employees, teachers, and coaches. It will also provide inspiration for readers looking to perform better, achieve more, and change both their own lives and those of the people they influence.
