Book Abstract
MAIN IDEA
The eight elements of Cal Ripken Jr.’s style perseverance are:
On September 6, 1995, I had broken the major league baseball record for consecutive games played. On that day, I’d played in my 2, 131st straight ball game. My streak would eventually end on September 20, 1998 after I had played in 2,632 consecutive games. The man who held the record before me, Henry Louis Gehrig, was more than just a baseball player. He was an American icon, a legend. Lou Gehrig and I shared a connection that goes back to old-school values and principles about going to work every day and hanging in there when the going gets tough. It’s the basic belief of simply rolling up your sleeves and doing the job to the best of your ability. Ideals such as these harken back to a time when baseball was just a game.
– Cal Ripken Jr.
