Few athletes in any sport have captured our imagination like Tiger Woods. His endless supply of highlight-reel shots and consistent domination of professional golf leave many of us wondering how he does it. Natural talent and a healthy killer instinct are merely the tip of the iceberg for what makes the world's greatest athlete tick. Tiger's unique personality attributes and competitive disposition set him apart from the pack. He is committed to something beyond merely winning; he's committed to the pursuit of personal excellence, and he loves all aspects of it. To truly appreciate and benefit from Tiger's example, look beyond the towering drives and fist-pumping clutch putts: How Tiger Does It goes deeper than any other volume on Tiger to unearth his personality and behavior attributes, showing you how to apply them to your own life.

What Customers Say About How Tiger Does It:
|

I believe this book is attempting to sell subpar material on the coattails of this recent news.Let it be known: if you want to know how Tiger does it you'll need to read the sext message transcript. Although you might believe you know what you're purchasing, I was very upset to find that nowhere in this book did I learn "How Tiger Does It". I bought this book because I've heard so much about Tiger Woods and I wanted the words straight from him. BUYER BEWARE. I thought perhaps all the motivational speech in the beginning was buildup to the sexual explosion which was bound to occur, but there was no such delivery.
I highly recommend this book to all those who have desire to learn and grow to become better. Very well written.
If you believe that "follow your bliss" is actually useful (or even coherent) advice, you might like this book.That is to say, I am sorry I wasted my money. Golfing advice is scant. There is a whole lot of questionable advice about conducting one's business (for which the author's qualifications are, shall we say, unclear). On the whole, the book can best be viewed as a celebration of self-absorption, which may well be a necessary quality of a great athlete (and even not so great ones like the author) but would not serve most of us very well as an attitude towards life. One searches for words to describe this book. Confused might be best. For example, in the section on focus we learn (surprise) that a pre-shot routine is a pretty good idea.
While this book centers around Tiger Woods and is filled with interesting facts about his career and success, the focus is about achieving a life balance and focusing on your own success--not the prize. Easy to read with a relaxed prose, the author is clearly in his "zone." Buy it and be encouraged in your own life.
I really enjoyed the practical tips at the end of each chapter that I could implement into my own life using Tiger's example. I agree with the author's premise that he is the greatest athlete of all time, and offers tremendously valuable lessons for all of us in daily life. This book was an interesting departure from the many other Tiger books that are biographical based. As Tiger continues to dominate golf, the important questions and comments in the book will arouse more and more interest.
