The Greatest You

Publisher's Summary

"If you want to become the best you, but are unsure how to get there, start here." (Rachel Hollis, number one New York Times best-selling author of Girl, Wash Your Face and Girl, Stop Apologizing)

In this remarkable, life-changing new book, renowned inspirational speaker Trent Shelton shares his revolutionary tool kit for transforming your life and reaching your goals.

Trent Shelton seemed to have it all together - until everything fell apart. A college football standout, his NFL dreams died when he was cut from multiple teams. With no job and no prospects, learning he had a child out of wedlock on the way and numbing himself with whatever he could find, Trent then found out one of his closest friends had killed himself. Life seemed without hope - until Trent discovered the secret to finding promise in the darkest of times. And now he shares that secret with you. 

Writing from deep, been-there experience, Trent walks you on a journey to become the best hope-filled version of yourself. In The Greatest You, Trent takes you through the necessary steps to become everything you are meant to be, from facing the reality of your circumstances and realizing your purpose in life to breaking free from toxic environments and forgiving those - including yourself - who've harmed you, to learning how to guard yourself against the pitfalls of life. 

Weaving together personal stories from his own life and from others who have also gone through hard times, Trent reveals how you can bring out the best in yourself and establish a happier, more fulfilled future for generations to come.

It’s Rehab time, Let’s Get it!

I bought the hardback and audiobook. Best investment of my life! The Greatest You by Trent Shelton is a powerful book on personal development, one that offers tools and secrets to unlocking the doors to personal fulfillment, growth, and success, and it is well-crafted for any reader. Most people are not satisfied with the life they are living because they are disconnected from themselves. They spend their lives chasing ideas, values and dreams suggested to them by our eclectic culture, struggling to meet standards set by others. In this book, Trent shares the wisdom that readers need to reconnect with their deepest desires and feel at one with themselves because it is only then that they can live with truth and authenticity. This book shows why we need to be the best version of US and help us identify what we truly need, our desires, and how to use them to create success and purpose.

Trent observes that: “Many of us have an objection to feeling joyous. Something in us resists feeling wonderful, resists the fullness of life. We feel there’s something flawed about us, something not quite right about who we are. For some people, this feeling is familiar and therefore comfortable.” This book helps readers turn things around, empowering them to overcome their internal resistance to growth, joy, and happiness, and providing actionable steps to learn to listen to themselves, to take control of their dreams, and to find tools that help them beat fear and obstacles on the way by “Protecting your Peace” The greatest you is a book I found to be very edifying, packed with wisdom and insight, one of those books to read or listen to and pass on. It’s life changing.

The audible book Narrated by Trent in a voice that is down to earth and engaging, in a style that connects with readers, allowing a heart to heart conversation, this is an audiobook to have in your car and in your home. The words are filled with power and that energy is communicated in the confident, clear and transparent voice of Trent Shelton. Highly recommend getting both the audible and hardback. 100 ⭐️! Join the TIC family if you haven’t yet. It’s a great community filled with support and advice. As a member I have met some incredible people. It’s Rehab Time, Let’s Get It!
