Historia
He is one of the most beloved athletes in history and one of the most gifted men ever to step onto a tennis court - but from early childhood Andre Agassi hated the game. Coaxed to swing a racket while still in the crib, forced to hit hundreds of balls a day while still in grade school, Agassi resented the constant pressure even as he drove himself to become a prodigy, an inner conflict that would define him. Now, in his beautiful, haunting autobiography, Agassi tells the story of a life framed by such conflicts.

Is he really a writer????
Revisado: 02-13-10
Amazingly the first time I was going to buy this book I thought twice. Should I really go for it??? Is it really something I want to read? some Tennis Player talking about Tennis and boring me to death. I mean what the hell will Andre Agassi write about and can the guy actually write?
Surprisingly, I was shocked. I found Andre to really have a way with words and he also had me glued from Page 1.
“Open” looks into the life and struggles of Andre Agassi and the sport he actually hated more than anything in the world and how ironically he ended having it as a career. It looks into his relationship with his father, his marriage to the beautiful Brook Shields and his antics to win the heart of Stephie Graf.
The book is really worth it and has a number of subliminal messages in it. The biggest hidden message or a moral if you would like to call it is don't give up on life and that anything is possible. Agassi did everything he hated but managed to get everything he set his mind to. Some people may call it luck. I call it dedication.
My personal opinion of Andre Agassi before reading this book was that he was a total show off which actually made me hate the guy’s guts. After reading the book, I found out that people just did not understand the man and his beliefs.
I truly admire the man now after reading this book. Hats off to you Andre.
A captivating book from Cover to end. Do get it and enjoy.

Really gets you thinking

This is the first time I am writing a review and what better book to review than Crush it!
It is a great book and you should definitely read it especially in an economy where nothing is what it seems. Where people are losing their jobs or new grads cannot find work this books gives direction and most of all hope to its reader.
Most of it is common sense but then as the saying goes common sense is really not that common so we have people like Gary who dish it out to us on a silver platter.
Having said that Gary really does open your eyes and makes sense as to where and what we should do. He speaks about building your own brand which I have always believed in but most importantly he shows you how to sell it.
Gary dishes it out the best way he knows, with clean clear English and a no nonsense approach. I have read the ebook and also listened to the Audio Book. To be honest I prefer the Audio book as Gary usually moves away from the script and give additional advise.
Overall I give this a five star rating. So do get the Audio book it really is worth it.
