What truly defines success? Is it reaching the top, or is it something beyond that?

John Vallely, a former top-tier athlete and coach, delves into this profound question combining personal stories and powerful insights. Drawing from decades of experience, Vallely crafts a narrative that transcends the conventional definition of success. 

The heartbeat of his philosophy is the Pyramid Principle, a clear, actionable framework that Vallely developed through his own experiences on and off the court. The Pyramid teaches that success is not about flashy victories or grand moments, but rather it is about mastering the details, cultivating resilience, and maintaining balance in all areas of life. Vallely's approach is practical and inspiring, offering strategies that anyone-from business leaders to athletes to those pursuing personal growth-can apply to their own lives.

This book is more than just a guide. It's a journey through life's ups and downs, with Vallely as your coach, mentor, and motivator. His storytelling compels the reader and transforms complex ideas into accessible actions. Each chapter offers a new layer of wisdom, encouraging readers to reflect on their own path and the steps needed to build their own pyramid of success.

The Pyramid Principle will present you with tools to elevate your game and stay focused in the face of challenges. Ultimately, you'll be inspired to reach heights you never dreamed possible. This is your blueprint for success, crafted from a lifetime of learning and now shared so that you can also achieve and enjoy greatness.


Industry Reviews

"WOW! WOW! WOW! The story is a beautiful, rich, masterpiece. A powerful message, with lessons, villains, hero's, and quite an ending! I strongly recommend it."

"An extremely moving story that brought me to tears more than once. It is very tight, has great transitions, and although one can be aware of the story, it is unpredictable and sends the reader on an emotional path. It's a big hit.Congratulations!"        

-Tim DeKay 

Star of TV's "White Collar"

- "moved and blown away"

- "Read it in 5 hours and was moved to tears!"

-- "I just finished your book John and to say I was overwhelmed by the power of your words would be an understatement. And I guess I could relate so closely to it because I could see myself so vividly as you were caring for and I was caring for my wife and then I identified with your wife, Karen, as she was caring for you. But how you described so vividly what Erin went through and then your own journey gave me a whole new understanding of what my wife must have been going through. But what drove me to not stop reading was the power of faith throughout the book-in the beginning you didn't know it was faith playing a role but then as you became a person of faith you began to recognize it all as a part of His glorious plan and as a result you gave me a renewed sense of hope for my own life. I will forever be in your debt for many things but this book was a capstone.

And one last thing-if anyone ever doubts to me about the power, the glory and the existence of God I will tell them the story of "what kind of wine do you drink dad" and that will shut them up for sure. Love you man, (anonymous friend)
