Description
Life constantly changes the shots it throws at us. Do you know what to do when life’s on a breakaway to your open net? Or, do you know how to face a major roadblock in your career? Furthermore, are you looking for gold medal-winning strategies to help you get the edge in your field? Lessons Learned: My Journey to the Podium is the real-life story of three-time gold medal winning Paralympian Josh Pauls on his adventure to achieving his dreams. This inspirational book takes readers through Josh’s life, from having his legs amputated at ten months old to becoming the youngest team captain of the US Sled Hockey Team. In Lessons Learned: My Journey to the Podium, you will learn: • inspiration and strategies on how to reach the top of your field through unique stories and humor, • valuable lessons you can apply to your everyday life and overcome the challenges you face, • what it is like to be behind the scenes at some of the world’s greatest sporting events, • the real reason why Josh Pauls can honestly say, “I can guarantee if I had come out with fully functional legs, I wouldn’t have had the great life I have now.” A story of triumph over challenges, Lessons Learned: My Journey to the Podium demonstrates that success can be measured not only by the end goal, but also on the journey it took to get there. Success isn't something that happens overnight. Josh Pauls shows how hard work, determination, and persistence can positively affect one's life. "My biggest asset is the positive attitude I carry along with me wherever I go." —Josh Pauls
