Today’s book: Go Long! by Jerry Rice (with Jim Trotter)—a behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to achieve greatness, drawn from the life and mindset of one of the hardest-working legends in NFL history.
Here’s your 1-minute summary:
- Talent is never enough. Jerry Rice wasn’t the fastest—but he was the most prepared, focused, and consistent.
- Discipline beats hype. Show up early. Work harder than anyone. Stay ready—always.
- Success = sacrifice. Skip the shortcuts. Pay the price every day and embrace the grind.
- Legacy > flash. Greatness isn’t built in one game—it’s built over decades of deliberate effort.
- Team first, ego last. Stay humble, stay hungry, and lift others with your example.
If you want to go far—go long. What’s one way you’ll train, lead, or serve like a pro today?
