Publisher's Summary

Training and motivational story guiding the listener hand-in-hand on how to overcome fear to reach for dreams

The book tells the story, in the format of sport and motivational style, of a poor boy living in the Brazil favelas who must face a challenge: escape from his poverty and ugliness of the world to become a man and a champion in life and sport. He is helped by two particular trainers.

The Secret of Mind and Body is the story that all of us have lived through when the force of the mind pushes us upward, stronger than the weights pulling us downward. This is a story for everyone who decides not to accept excuses to achieve their objectives. It is a story for those of us who suffer but still hope and, above all, want to succeed. It is a story common to many of us since everyone in life has been overwhelmed by someone or something. Some of us have the force to get up and return to fight. This story is dedicated to you, whatever the battle is that you are fighting.

Thanks to The Secret of Mind and Body, you can win. This is what you will discover in the story. In particular, you will hear how a simple telling can change your life. How did Carlos escape from Rocinha? How did George make him a champion? What is the sheet used by Carlos to win his competition? How did he train his mind? And you, what is the battle that you will win?
