When Sir Steve Redgrave won his fifth consecutive gold medal at Sydney in 2000, he became the greatest Olympian Britain has ever produced. Together with Matthew Pinsent, Steve is also the holder of both the Coxless Pairs World Record and Olympic Record. In You Can Win at Life!, Steve outlines his strategies for reaching the top, and shows you how to apply them in all walks of life. There are chapters on how to motivate yourself, how to overcome low self-esteem, and how to be prepared for any eventuality. Other sections give advice on strategic thinking and mental discipline, leadership, and team work. Throughout the book, Steve uses the experiences of his contacts in sport, business, and entertainment to help us understand what it takes to be a winner.
