About this book
What if you could harness the many invaluable lessons you learned as a college or professional athlete and apply them to your professional and personal life? In After the Game, Jay Dixon, a former D1 athlete and founder of SuccessCoach.com, combines athletic insights with data-supported mindset elements to show you how. Crafted in the tradition of wisdom-rich business fables to vividly bring the characters and narrative to life, After the Game combines a page-turning fictional narrative with a wealth of real-life lessons and insights designed to inform, advise, and inspire budding entrepreneurs and future CEOs. You'll discover:
- research that proves athletes are perfectly suited to own and lead businesses
- ten mindset elements that are crucial to your success at work and in life
- seven hands-on lessons that will accelerate your journey from idea to ownership
- a proven playbook to become a CEO eleven years faster than typical routes

- how to build a successful independent enterprise and achieve substantial personal growth
- ... and much more.
With billions of dollars' worth of small businesses set to be sold or passed down as baby boomers move into their retirement years, opportunities abound for savvy entrepreneurs to learn to acquire, lead, and sell those businesses—and no demographic is more poised and prepared to do so than former athletes. This is your time. Don't stand on the sidelines another minute. Get up, get ready, and get back in the action. A glorious new future awaits.
