Michigan Motivations: A Year of Inspiration with the University of Michigan Wolverines

Cyle Young and Del Duduit masterfully turns Michigan Wolverines most famous football moments into inspiration for the reader. I’m not a huge football fan, but my husband is, as well as a good friend whom we bought the book for. My husband shared some of his favorite chapters with me, and week 18 pointed out that winners push through trials and are willing to work hard. Winners are people of integrity and possess a humble nature, too. They also have a hefty dose of passion and enthusiasm for their goal (and I couldn’t help but chuckle at the double meaning there). I don’t have to be an avid football fan to internalize a theme here, that winners share certain characteristics! And, those are characteristics that I want to have, and I’m hoping they’ll lead me towards my own goal, too!-Julie Lavender, author of 365 Ways to Love Your Child: Turning Little Moments into Lasting Moments (Revell/Baker Publishing)
