From America’s favorite football player turned morning talk
show host—a man who makes just about everything look easy—a
mélange of stories and motivational advice to inspire the
reader to turn up the heat and go from good to great in
pursuit of their personal ambitions. Michael Strahan spent his childhood on a military base in
Europe, where community meant everything, and life, though
idyllic, was different. For one, when people referenced
football they meant soccer. So when Michael’s father
suggested he work toward a college scholarship by playing
football in Texas, where tens of thousands of people show up
for a weekend game, the odds were long. Yet he did, indeed,
land a scholarship and from there a draft into the NFL where
he scaled the league’s heights, broke records, and helped
his team win the Super Bowl as a result of which he was
inducted into the Hall of Fame. How? By developing
“Strahan’s Rules”—a mix of mental discipline, positive
thinking, and a sense of play. He also used the Rules to
forge a successful post pro-ball career as cohost with Kelly
Ripa on Live!—a position for which he was considered the
longshot—and much more. In Wake Up Happy, Michael shares personal stories about how
he gets and stays motivated and how readers can do the same
in their quest to attain their life goals.
