Relentless

Sean Pratt's performance makes him sound like both a serious expert and a chatty observer. Both aspects of his vocal presence work well to deliver the author's message on exceptional performance in any realm of life. Being a relentless achiever--he calls them "cleaners"--is about doing, especially when the people around you are ready to slack off or start feeling sorry for your opponents. Basketball figures heavily in the narratives that illustrate this fast-moving lesson; Grover has been the personal trainer of Michael Jordan and countless other hoops stars. Their stories bring home the powerful point that top-level success means taking intense responsibility for results at any cost. T.W. © AudioFile 2015, Portland, Maine
