Rugby! Be the best ‘You’ you can be!: Using the Rugby mindset for a positive and successful life
£11.40
‘Rugby! Be the best `You` you can be!’, is about personal and professional development through the mindset of the Rugby player. We are all very different, but we all want to succeed and ultimately be happy. This book is a philosophy of improvement using Rugby Union as the mentor. When we want to improve ourselves on a personal level, we think about getting a `life coach`, and when we want to improve ourselves on a professional level, we think about getting a `mentor`. When we are looking to improve ourselves as a team, we go on `teambuilding exercises`. Rugby is all about personal and professional improvement and above all, teamwork! Life is the ultimate team sport! No matter who we are, we all have people we rely on, or that rely on us. Whether we have friends, family, students, teachers, clients, suppliers, employers and employees, we are all working together for success and happiness. I realised, after listening to many different specialists and studying many different techniques in business leadership, management, emotional intelligence and motivation, that there were many analogies and phrases from the world of sports but that was where it stopped. Understanding that a company is only as good as its team, why was I not learning from the greatest teams? Rugby is all about how to work effectively as a team and how to get the best from yourself and your teammates. There are also lessons in leadership, motivation, work ethic, self-awareness, positive mental attitude, self-control, discipline, patience, emotional intelligence, personal growth, responsibility, fulfilment, respect and, above all, happiness! A Rugby player cannot win on their own, therefore there is no success without a team. Simply put, we all understand sport and the sports team mentality, so we already understand how to succeed, personally and professionally. Studying leadership, motivation and teamwork is as complicated as watching the game at the weekend. This book shows how easy it is to create a winning mindset that will help you be more successful, positive and happy! Become the best `You` you can be with a sport team mentality. Grab life with both hands and win!

If you’re a rugby fan or you’ve never seen a match in your life, the principles in this book are both insightful & useful to put to work in your own daily activities; family, work, socially. You’ll be glad you read this book. If everyone read this book, the world would be a happier, more organised place, & all thanks to the beautiful game! (& the author!)

A friend encouraged me to read this book. I laughed, thinking what do I know about Rugby lol. In all my school years, I ran as a lines person, more than I played the game ( I sucked).
Even though I had to Google or you tube, most of the terms used for the sport, I found the book very much encouraged anybody to give their all to life or whatever they enjoy.
