By Aubrey S., Estacada, OR

     Success is a Choice: Ten Steps to Overachieving in Business and Life may sound like a boring book only adults would read, but I'm 17 and a dedicated athlete. I'm really into goal setting, working hard to attain them, and having a positive mental outlook. This book provided a lot of useful information on how to go about doing all these things. Pitino says anyone can be successful and it is a choice. This would be a great book for young athletes getting ready for college, or if you want to be a coach or leader.

Pitino has coached at both the college and NBA levels and gives you an idea of what coaches look for. I found his book very motivational and recommend it to anyone striving to meet a goal. This book is great at allowing you to discover your possibilities.
