“It’s not over until it’s over. You want to be a champion, you have to think that way, in everything you do. You never stop.” I was hurt playing football like when I got a concussion and messed my knee up for a few weeks. But did I quit? No, I didn’t give up.

I have taken in many lessons from your book. I finished your book and now I am more determined and have become more positive, and I’ve learned to never give up hope. I learned to get back up and not stay down after getting knocked down, not just in football, but in life. Thanks to you Tim Green. Thank you for writing this
