About the Book

What if everything you believe about talent is wrong?

For too long, we've worshipped the myth of natural talent-crushing dreams, destroying potential and telling millions of kids they're "not good enough." TOTAL BULLSH*T.

Michael Jordan was cut from his high school team. Tom Brady was pick #199. Stephen Curry was "too small." What separated them wasn't genes-it was CHARACTER.

This book will shatter everything you think you know about athletic success and show you the 10 Championship Choices that actually predict greatness. Your child may not be "talented"-but they can be something infinitely better.

This is a book of hope for every kid who's ever been told they're not enough.

With over 30 years working with kids, coaches and committed parents all over the world, Wayne Goldsmith will guide you through the Talent Myth and help you to help every child discover their true potential.
