Over It: How to Face Life's Hurdles with Grit, Hustle, and Grace
Over It: How to Face Life's Hurdles with Grit, Hustle, and Grace
Three-time Olympian Lolo Jones delivers a tough yet inspiring look into the strategies she has used to overcome immense obstacles on her way to becoming one of the best women's hurdler in the world.Not always a confident athlete, Lolo Jones's path to becoming a World Champion and Olympian began in childhood with a single mother who worked multiple jobs to support a family of six while her father was serving time in prison. This instilled an overcomer's mindset that gave her the strength she needed to rise above an unstable and impoverished background, earn an economics degree at LSU, and then to establish herself as one of the best women's hurdler in the world.In Over It, Jones delivers a high-octane dose of no-BS encouragement, storytelling, humor, and practicality that exposes the obstacles that too often hold us back. With the same pluck and boldness that defines Jones in her life and career, she teaches readers how to face their challenges head-on and keep working to overcome them with strength (and joy--if they're willing to work really, really hard). Because even when the obstacles are large and we feel frustrated, overwhelmed, and ready to quit, we've got to keep fighting--full force, full speed. We've got to get over it.
Over It is a high-octane dose of encouragement, storytelling, and hard-won advice from Lolo Jones, three-time Olympian and world champion hurdler and bobsledder.Lolo is perhaps better known today not for all the races she's won but for the millisecond mistake that cost her an Olympic gold medal over a decade ago. With stunning authenticity about her own struggles, longings, and losses, she shows us how to face our challenges head-on and keep working to overcome them.Lolo challenges us to: handle failure while pursuing our dreams;recognize the difference between achieving a goal and experiencing success;turn our most painful moments into the most successful;use thankfulness and faith to develop healthy hindsight; andgive and receive forgiveness as the path back to life.Growing up in a broken home, Lolo learned to shoplift at a young age just to eat at night and sometimes slept on the basement floor of the Salvation Army. While her father was in prison, her mother worked multiple jobs, and Lolo realized she needed to be self-motivated, singularly focused, and unwilling to quit if she wanted to succeed.Reflecting on her own challenging spiritual journey, Lolo invites us to rest in God who can make all the difference in overcom
