Not Today: The Secret to Never Giving Up

By Mike Avila

Book Overview

Mike Avila was at the top of his sport. A legend in water ski racing who had come back from three career-ending injuries-including a broken neck-and continued to dominate in races. He was invincible. Nothing could stop him, because nothing ever had.

That is until a horrific water ski accident left him lifeless in the water. After being resuscitated and rushed to hospital, Mike learned he had broken his neck for a third time, had a broken jaw joint, and was paralyzed on the right side of his body. The man who never quit was broken. For the first time in his life, Mike felt like giving up.

Part-memoir, part-blueprint for overcoming adversity, Not Today tells the story of Mike's incredible journey-and the mindset that kept him moving forward, one day at a time. It's about how two powerful words can give you the strength to never give up, the will to triumph over adversity, and the conviction to create the life of your dreams.

Moving, unvarnished, and inspiring at every turn, Not Today is for anyone who feels lost or beaten down by life. It's for anyone struggling with their relationships, work, physical and mental health, or any other obstacles in life. It's also for anyone who loves the life they have but has bigger dreams for the future. Wherever you are right now, the Not Today mindset can help you get where you want to be. One day at a time. With relentless commitment.
