As we head towards the Super Bowl, I’d like to recommend two Sports for the Soul books that I think are the perfect motivational reads for this occasion.
The first book is Victory Favors the Fearless: How to Defeat the 7 Fears That Hold You Back.
Why this book? What does a book about a pro boxer learning to conquer his fears and doubts have to do with the Super Bowl?
Well, it’s because back in August, Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley talked about how this book was motivating him heading into the 2024 season, his first season with Philadelphia. (You can see his comments here.)
Barkley went on to have one of the greatest seasons in NFL history, rushing for more than 2,000 yards, earning first-team All-Pro honors, and leading the Eagles to Super Bowl LIX.
I’m honored to hear this book impacted Barkley’s mindset, and I believe it can do the same for you, no matter what your profession or what type of season you’re heading into in life.
You can grab your copy of Victory Favors the Fearless here and see for yourself how adopting a “fearless” attitude can change your life.
The second SFTS book I’d like to recommend is Think Big to Win Big: The Bigger You Believe, The Bigger You Achieve.
This latest release in the SFTS series is the No. 1 Amazon Bestseller that shows you just how powerful your mind really is.
The reason it’s the perfect read now is because it revolves specifically around the Super Bowl.
In this motivational novel, a sportswriter spends two weeks interviewing one of the NFL’s most unique head coaches as he prepares his team for the biggest stage in sports: the Super Bowl. What this writer learns during those two weeks ends up changing his outlook on life as he discovers the awesome power of thinking BIG.
As the story plays out, you will see how simple shifts in your thinking can lead you to new levels of success. You will learn how to break through the common, limiting beliefs that hold you back from reaching your full potential. You will discover how the size of your thinking ultimately determines the size of your success.
And it all revolves around a fun story set at the Super Bowl.
You can grab your copy of Think Big to Win Big here and see how the size of your thinking affects every area of your life: your career, your finances, your business, your relationships, your physical health, your mental health, and your peace of mind.
Remember, success begins in your mind and the bigger you think, the more successful you will be.
Thank you for reading these books and enjoy the game!
