Opis

From a very early age, Bob Duffy was determined to be in control of his own future. Like many young boys, he had big dreams of playing in the NBA. However, the kid from Katonah, New York was told on more than one occasion that he would never succeed in professional sports, much less get a college education. He was told that he was too small, too skinny, and that he was not "college-material." Along with the unwavering support of his parents, Duffy refused to believe the cynics. He never lost sight of his boyhood dream. From basketball to business to philanthropy, Duffy remained steadfast and did exactly what he had set out to do, which was to remain in control of his own future. In doing so, he achieved far more than even he dreamed possible While the road to his success was uncharted, uncertain, and oftentimes a struggle, his vision remained constant and his determination never gave way to doubt. Within the pages of Make it Happen, Duffy reveals his manifesto for achievement, particularly as it pertains to overcoming obstacles. A lot has changed in the NBA since the 1960s. Business, too, has changed in many ways. However, the one thing that will never change is the determination and resilience it takes to realize childhood dreams
