Row the Boat

A Never-Give-Up Approach to Lead with Enthusiasm and Optimism and Improve Your Team and Culture

By: Jon Gordon, P. J. Fleck

Narrated by: P. J. Fleck

In Row the Boat, Minnesota Golden Gophers head coach P. J. Fleck and bestselling author Jon Gordon deliver an inspiring message about what you can achieve when you approach life with a never-give-up philosophy. The book shows you how to choose enthusiasm and optimism as your guiding lights instead of being defined by circumstances and events outside of your control.

Discover how to put the three key components of row the boat into practice in your life:

- The Oar: The energy. Only you can dictate whether your oar is in the water or whether you take it out and decide not to use it.

- The Boat: The sacrifice. The more you give, serve, and make your life about helping others, the better and more fulfilled your life will be, and the bigger your boat gets.

- The Compass: The direction. The vision you have for your life and the people you surround yourself with help create the dream of where you want to go.

Perfect for athletes, coaches, business leaders, and anyone else who hopes to squeeze a little more enjoyment and productivity out of life, Row the Boat will propel leaders, teams, and organizations to greater heights than they have ever reached before.

Inspiring

This book is inspiring because it helps to reinforce and out into words what I have been trying to accomplish with my students. They are Automotive students at a trade college, but I feel I can send them into the world as better people and leaders. This book helps me to have words to inspire more.

The growth and the story was really amazing!!!!

I liked the whole book and mainly that was because of its amazing story telling and the meaning in the words

Victory

Again simple insights to complex issues that most people will not face or heal. Victory instilled by others in negative situations is made through a step by step process that heals and cleanses both sides.
