Description: When Pat Croce choreographed the purchase of the Philadelphia 76ers in 1996, he proved that dreams really do come true. And two months later, when he excitedly high-fived stunned NBA team owners after winning the nationally televised NBA draft lottery, he infused a passion into team ownership that is as entertaining and original as it is unstoppable.
But that’s what Pat Croce is all about : energy, passion, laughter, and dreams. A little bit of Yin, and a whole lot of Yang. A pioneer in the sports physical therapy industry, Croce went from the training room to the boardroom in one of the most unlikely stories in sports history-a classic rags to riches tale that was made possible by his rock solid upbringing and his indestructible positive attitude.
I Feet Great and You Will Too! is more than just the story of one man’s remarkable journey. At times moving, often hilarious, and always brutally honest, this book offers a lifetime of inspiring lessons. With the same high-energy style that has made him a favourite motivational speaker of Fortune 500 executives, Croce recounts the moments that taught him to strive for and achieve greatness.
But greatness does not come without obstacles. Croce suffered a tragic motorcycle accident in the summer of 1999 that almost cost him his leg, but which also gave him the biggest challenge of his life—a harrowing recovery marked by a barely avoided amputation, a challenge to his core beliefs, and ultimately, triumph.
Featured throughout I Feel Great and You Will Too! are "Pat Croce Pointers," which emphasize valuable lessons on goal-setting, sales and marketing, communication, creative thinking, desire, dedication, and much more. Croce also includes his "Ten Commandments of Customer Service," the same guidelines he’s used to become one of the most successful entrepreneurs in the sports industry.
With wisdom, insight, and humour on every page, I Feel Great and You will Too! is an invaluable blueprint for business and for life.
