520    "Sportswriter and columnist Sally Jenkins spent her whole 
       life literally stamping great coaches and athletes down in
       letters. But somewhere along the line, she realized, they 
       had begun to write her.  Their example could shape her 
       into something better if she paid attention. What she 
       learned from great athletes and coaches is that champions 
       are the product of their own work. This book is an effort 
       to catalog the inner qualities that allow ordinary people 
       to overcome pressure, elevate their performances and find 
       champion identities.  GREATNESS IN PRACTICE uses breath-
       takingly dramatic sports anecdotes featuring the elite 
       coaches and play-makers Steve Kerr, Bill Belichick, Pat 
       Summit, Peyton Manning, and Jill Ellis, Michael Phelps, 
       and Andre Agassi, among others, to illustrate 7 principles
       which underlie great decision-making. The seven principles
       (conditioning, practice, discipline, candor, culture, 
       resilience, intention) are each broken down and explored 
       in their own chapters through long-form sports stories.  
       This book is the one stop shop for anyone wanting to learn
       how to effectively lead and achieve. From sports fans to 
       businesspeople and everyone in between, there is something
       for any reader ready to elevate their greatness practices"
