I really enjoyed Derrick's story. Many of the items he discusses remind me of all the things we learn in sports! His "its simple, but not easy" theories resonated with me. The FIO mentality shows how hard it is to succeed without consistency and determination. I really liked the book.
Inspirational, no self help bs, just a life story and framework for living, highly recommend!
Great read. Perseverance and hard work pay off and Derrick walks you through the pitfalls and how to pick yourself up and keep going. Not always easy and that's why everyone doesn't do it. Recommend highly
Put to the Test by Derrick Girard is a must-read for anyone in middle management. It gave me practical tools and a fresh mindset for navigating leadership challenges, staying resilient under pressure, and driving strategic results. The “Figure It Out” approach inspired me to lead with more clarity, accountability, and motivation—especially during tough times. This book is packed with insight and actionable ideas I’ve already started implementing with my team. Highly recommended.
