The Art of Doing: A Guide to Getting Motivated, Getting Unstuck and Getting It Done

In 2007, Jesse Lipscombe was training for the Beijing Olympics. An internationally top-ranked high jumper, his dreams of making the podium were shattered when he had a mini-stroke just five months before the Olympics. Jesse’s stroke was a turning point in his life and changed his entire outlook. Rather than a singular focus on achieving a goal like an Olympic medal, he began to focus on the “doing” – and a world of opportunity, wonder and happiness unfolded for him.

Lipscombe uses lessons from his life as an actor, speaker, writer, entrepreneur, pro-athlete and singer to craft a simple template that anyone can use to ensure they get out of the blocks and continue the momentum towards their dreams and goals. Lipscombe outlines tactics and strategies from passion, pursuit and productivity including how to win through losing, the macro to the micro planning strategy, and how to only do what you love or find a way to love what you do. Sensible, practical and inspiring, The Art of Doing will help you do any and everything you hope for.
