Summary

"Jerry Rice has been called the best pro football player ever. In spite of his legendary gridiron skills, or even his ability to transform himself into a ballroom-dance prodigy on ABC's Dancing with the Stars, the surprising fact is, a guy like Jerry Rice is made and not just born. Here he shares the inspirational lessons and empowering practices that have helped him attain success, both on the football field and off. From his childhood in Starkville, Mississippi, Rice blazed a path to college and the NFL--a trip fueled by tireless effort and belief in a few simple principles, among them that achievement is a voyage, not a destination; that modesty and perseverance, not talent, are what determine how far you will go; and that everyone should strive to be a role model. Rice even demonstrates these rules in action, breaking down the greatest games from his stellar career.--From publisher description."--From source other than the Library of Congress
