Practice Makes Permanent so Practice Excellence!
In 20 years as a professional soldier and 30 years as a martial artist, studying and training in the art and science of praxis, pursuing excellence, and preparing for the battles of life, spiritually, mentally, and physically, I've learned that practice does not make perfect; practice makes permanent. This book will show you how to practice with passion, purpose, and precision. It will help you build high-performing cultures around leaders of character and teach you the way of the warrior.
