The New York Times best-selling author of The Power of Broke and
"Shark" on ABC's hit show Shark Tank explores how grit, persistence,
and good old-fashioned hard work are the backbone of every successful
business and individual, and inspires listeners to Rise and Grind
their way the top.
Daymond John knows what it means to push yourself hard - and he also
knows how spectacularly a killer work ethic can pay off. As a young man,
he founded a modest line of clothing on a $40 budget by hand-sewing hats
between his shifts at Red Lobster. Today, his brand FUBU has over $6
billion in sales.
Convenient though it might be to believe that you can shortcut your way
to the top, says John, the truth is that if you want to get and stay
ahead, you need to put in the work. You need to out-think, out-hustle,
and out-perform everyone around you. You've got to rise and grind every
day.
In the anticipated follow-up to the best-selling The Power of Broke,
Daymond takes an up close look at the hard-charging routines and winning
secrets of individuals who have risen to the challenges in their lives
and grinded their way to the very tops of their fields. Along the way,
he also reveals how grit and persistence both helped him overcome the
obstacles he has faced in life and ultimately fueled his success.
