THE PERFECT EURO 2020 READ from the manager who took England to their first major final in 55 years

England manager Gareth Southgate has spent his career inspiring young people to think positively and reach their best, from the England men's and Under-21 team to his work with the Prince's Trust.

YOU have the potential to make ANYTHING POSSIBLE.

In this hugely positive and helpful book for readers aged 12 and up, Gareth gives YOU the tools to be confident, resilient and to overcome your own challenges for your exciting journey ahead, wherever it takes you.

BE BRAVE
Bravery is not just the kind of heroic act that earns a medal. It's the quality we need to step out of our comfort zones and take on new challenges.

BE KIND
A force for good that comes from the heart, kindness changes lives. It opens up opportunities and can be our greatest strength.

FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS
We all have a story to tell in life. It's down to us what it will be about. So, let's begin writing YOUR STORY - and make it one that truly shines.

'Fantastic ... I've told my son Noah, aged 11, you have to read this ... I can't tell you how much I loved it because it talks about confidence, and I struggled with confidence' CHRIS EVANS

'I loved this - full of wonderful advice I can't wait to share with my children.' HOLLY WILLOUGHBY

'Never puts a word wrong. Isn't Gareth Southgate simply the most inspiring leader in England?' KRISHNAN GURU-MURTHY

'Gareth Southgate sticks out a mile in public life because he is thoughtful, intelligent, generous, courageous and humane.' SATHNAM SANGHERA

'Inspirational and honest - just like the man himself.' BEAR GRYLLS

'An inspirational book' THE SUN

'It really is a great book ... lots of really nice tips for confidence, staying strong, glass-half-full mentality, what makes a good team' CHRIS MOYLES

'I feel that the lessons you're sharing, the wisdom that you're sharing, has relevance for all of us, whether football fans or non-football fans. And that's because these are some quite core lessons for life' DR RANGAN CHATTERJEE

'Southgate's analytical mind is stamped across the pages of the book; his meticulousness, his love of clarity and process. He offers tips and life lessons - focus on what you can control, do not compare yourself with others, dare to try even if it means slipping up. The tone is easy, upbeat and the messages are drummed home gently, always linking to one another ... what shines through is the warmth and inclusivity of his leadership style.' THE GUARDIAN

An excellent book, a must read for everyone

I flew through this, couldn't put it down. A beautiful mix of semi autobiographical and management/motivation/leadership tools to get through life no matter where you are in society.

(I have, and never will watch football, but I liked the sound of this book, its not about football, it is about people).

Every teenager should read this.
Every manager should definitely read this.
Everyone should read it.

Brilliant, inspiring, motivating, humbling.
All round excellent book, one of my favourite books ever read.

Wish I had listened to this when I was young

Fantastic, personalised insight on dealing with all kinds of challenges that everyone faces, from Gareth Southgate.

The book is full of very useful sport & positive psychology principles, which can applied to all walks of life (along with many examples of this).

With mental health gaining more exposure in the media, this book is an excellent introduction to anyone wanting to learn more about how to deal with challenges and make the most of their potential.

I wish I had read this 20yrs ago, and I will definitely be recommending it to the young people I work with.

compelling & encouraging read

After the euro 2021 i downloaded this book, Gareth is an inspirational guy and I still cannot believe his coach told him to be a travel agent 😢

Must read for young people

Whilst I said a must read for young people, as I read the book I could see many of my not so young peer group. This book inspires you to try harder and do a little better in life and your dealings with others. I would recommend it to everyone

Honest

I found the book and it's narration clear and easy to listen to. Gareth allowed himself to become vulnerable in order for us to experience the roller coaster moments . Worth a read.

Purposeful Read

Each chapter of this book has useful and empowering ideas and perspectives. It’s easy to listen to and it’s read in an authentic way. Hats off Mr Southgate!

A great listen for anyone who would like to take purposeful and productive steps in developing their mindset and attitudinal approach to sport or life in general.

Suitable (essential content) for children (I would say a mature 9 and up) and for adults. Definitely a fantastic listen for adults and children together!

I’ve now ordered copies for children that I work with.

Enjoy the read and have fun getting proactive with it!

Such an inspiration

A fantastic book by an inspirational man. Love that Gareth narrated this all himself & shows how much he cares & really wants to help people & especially young people. If you want to be inspired or be a better person this book is a must.

Such a good listen

Instructional, insightful and inspirational.

Though it is targeted at younger listeners (secondary school children/teenagers), there's plenty in here whatever age your are.

I will definitely be listening to this again
