If you do not want to read complex motivational and psychiatric theory about athletic and mental performance, this is the perfect read, because its daily motivations are not only trenchant and stirring, they are also meaningful and evocative. Not all 365 mini-essay will pump you up, but I dare say everyone, anyone, who takes his training seriously can find at least 10 passages he will bookmark and refer constantly to for inspiration. This is really good, the only one of its kind I know, I'd buy it if I could decide all over again.
