Challenger Deep: Athletes Rising Above Adversity

By Jeff Heggie and Tami Matheny

Book Overview

This collection of 30 short stories of elite athletes and teams using challenges they face to rise to greater heights is a great read for any athlete or team. Reflection questions and action items give you skills to help you overcome adversity that life throws at you. After all, the most successful athletes aren't the ones that never had challengers but the ones that used them to rise higher.

Challenger Deep is the deepest part of the ocean- therefore the lowest point on Earth, more than 36,000 feet below the ocean's surface. You physically can't get any lower.

The beautiful thing about being at your lowest point is there is nowhere to go but up. In these moments of adversity, we must stop and look up and focus on the little bit of light that's peeking through. In some instances, you may not be able to see any sort of light, but the belief that you soon will, can be your salvation during these times. Use these stories of real-life athletes- most of who were among the best in their fields- and their lessons on rising above adversity to inspire and motivate you and your teams to new heights.

"In life adversity only visits the strong. It stays forever with the weak." -Dale Brown
