Synopsis

'Like everyone else, I have also had some bad times and more may lie in my future, like everyone else I have failed at times, and probably will fail again. That is exactly what this book is about: about how life is like a card game with unavoidable ups and downs. The core of it is: how can you turn a dead card around and make the most of the hand you are dealt? How can you not only process setbacks but use them to become stronger?' Too often we focus on the bad cards that we have been dealt and forget to look at the winning hand that we're holding. Triathlete Marc Herremans uses his own life story as a guideline to teach you to cope with misfortunes differently and can use them to grow as a person. He shows you how you can handle unexpected changes in a positive way, discover what is really important in life, and proves that you can turn adversity into opportunity.
