Figure skater Michelle Kwan shares her commonsense philosophy on goal-setting, discipline, and dedication, explaining how it relates to everything from sports to making friends and getting along with family. Although the advice is solid and helpful, the earnest text is only occasionally relieved by anecdotes from Kwan's life, making the general tone more preachy than personal. Color plates illustrate the volume.
