There's more to winning battles than fists and feetFor
world-renowned professional fighter Georges St-Pierre, the greatest
asset is not physical strength or athleticism--it's a sense of
purpose. From his beginnings as a small, mercilessly bullied child
first discovering karate to his years as a struggling garbage
collector who spent all his free time in the gym, his hard-fought
rise in the sport of mixed martial arts, and his long, painful
recovery from a career-threatening injury, Georges never lost sight
of his ambition to become the greatest martial artist of all time.
In The Way of the Fight, Georges for the first time reveals what
propelled him not only to become a champion but to embrace
obstacles as opportunities to build character.Georges's story is
interwoven with fascinating insights from those who know him best:
his mother, who tells of his drive to master new skills, even as a
child. His mentor Kristof Midoux, who describes a young fighter
with an extraordinary sense of discipline. His Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
teacher John Danaher, who witnessed the development of an
indomitable work ethic. His coach Firas Zahabi, who worked
alongside the champion through a potentially career-ending injury.
And his longtime friend, training partner and manager, Rodolphe
Beaulieu, who may understand this intensely focused athlete more
than anyone.The Way of the Fight is an inspirational look into the
mindset of a master. To Georges, all life is competition, and
there's no more perfect metaphor for competition than the life of a
fighter. He explains the value of discipline, risk and even fear,
with the wisdom of one who knows that nothing is assured--his next
fight could always be his last. Drawing inspiration from fighting
legends, Eastern philosophy and a trusted inner circle, The Way of
the Fight is a powerful, life-changing guide to living with purpose
and finding the way to accomplish your loftiest goals.
