Instant New York Times Bestseller

Deion “Coach Prime” Sanders is one of the greatest motivators and inspirational leaders of all time-on the field, in business, with family, and in his community. Now, he delivers the ultimate playbook of inspiring personal stories, winning strategies, and the motivation required to help us “elevate and dominate” in all aspects of our lives.


A natural-born leader, Deion Sanders demands and expects the best from himself and from those around him, never settling for anything less. Whether it's dealing with intense pressure, using the competition to his advantage, or navigating personal challenges-both physical and emotional-Sanders has conquered it all by applying the hard-earned principles he's learned throughout his life and career.

The twenty-one inspirational ways to win here are based on the motivational stories and experiences of Sanders's incredible life, including being raised by a single mother who sacrificed and worked nonstop to support her family, being enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, earning his place as a head coach with a Division I football team, and being a dedicated father of five accomplished children.

His inspirational messages reach far beyond the world of sports because they are based on deep faith, respect for himself and others, and an unflagging commitment to that which he believes in. They are designed to help anyone who is looking to improve the quality of their life, whether it be in business and leadership, relationships and partnership, or parenting and family. Through his unique and powerful lens, Coach Prime provides the direction, motivation, and action required for anyone to dominate and win at life.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Praise for ELEVATE AND DOMINATE

"I’ve known Prime since his days in Dallas. I have witnessed the countless wins in his life and his career. Although impressive, it is not that, which has gained my respect and admiration—but rather the losses that I’ve had a front row seat to witness, that through his deep faith and strong will, he has been able to conquer, and as a result, go on to be nothing less than a national treasure."
–Steve Harvey

“Coach Prime transcends the role of a typical coach, serving as a mentor and life guide to his players. He shapes them into not only skilled athletes but also resilient individuals, ready for life's challenges. His presence offers a blend of inspiration and strength, molding his players into better men, both on and off the field. That’s why we love him.”
–Gillie Da Kid and Wallo267,
Million Dollaz Worth of Game

“Oftentimes, legends aren’t appreciated in their prime. It’s when you look back over their work that their greatness is visible. That’s not the case with Deion Sanders. His authenticity is on display. His legacy is being written in front of us. He is 100% unapologetic and that’s inspiring. How often does a black man get to walk boldly and confidently in his gifts? Hardly ever. He has carved out his own path in sports, marketing, and coaching. All of it, backed with his faith in God. Whether you love him or hate him, you can’t deny he’s legendary.”
–Dawn Staley, Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame player and coach

“In every generation, there's a light bearer. Someone who offers hope and is true to who they are, no matter the circumstance or outcome. Coach Prime is that light for this generation. He has never met an obstacle he couldn't overcome, faced a challenge he wasn't ready for, or been afraid to step up when the time came. His light, hope, faith, and authenticity are the hallmarks of a great man. His story, shared here, will change lives for the better. It definitely changed mine.”
–Eric Thomas, motivational speaker and New York Times bestselling author of You Owe You

“Unc is a blessing to everyone he comes across. That’s just who he is. For me, in my world and in my life right now, he is a father figure. And he’s that to almost everybody he talks to because he’s able to make that kind of real, personal connection with so many people. He’s able to accomplish what for most of us would be impossible.”
–Lil Wayne

“In Elevate and Dominate, Deion Sanders draws from a lifetime of victories and vicissitudes, prosperity and pitfalls, apexes and agonies, and opportunities as well as obstacles. I’ve seen him embody and exemplify these principles on a daily basis. Learn here how to win from an absolute and verifiable winner!”
–Dr. E. Dewey Smith, pastor, author, and executive coach

“He [Deion] has taken tips and tools and tricks from the field and he’s bringing them to our lives. It’s a beautiful book.”
–Kwame Alexander, author and poet

The Hall of Fame football player and current coach aims to up your game.

“It’s not just enough to TALK the TALK. You gotta WALK the WALK.” So writes Sanders, who, one might think, wore out the shift key on his laptop pounding out this hortatory treatise. “WHEN YOU LOOK GOOD, YOU FEEL GOOD. WHEN YOU FEEL GOOD, YOU PLAY GOOD. AND WHEN YOU PLAY GOOD, THEY PAY GOOD,” he exalts, opining that a winner lays out his—and this book is definitely geared to men—garb the night before and is thus prepared to conquer the world once the last button is fastened. As in his 1998 memoir Power, Money & Sex, the author is unflinchingly honest about his own struggles with life: He once tried to commit suicide by driving his car over a cliff, and early on in this book, he admits to the fear that he’s been diminished recently by losing toes to femoral arterial blood clots “that made my anatomy look like I had been smoking for thirty years.” His message there is suitably urgent: “Keep going. Keep moving. Don’t surrender. No matter how bad you think it is, DON’T QUIT.” Refreshingly, while Sanders is a coach of the body, he also honors the mind. He encourages readers to read and to make it a point to learn something new every day. “Whether it’s through music, reading, podcasts, or journaling, you gotta fill your head with positive thoughts and possibilities instead of dwelling on your doubts,” he counsels. Refreshingly, he allows for mental rests and resets as a critical component of self-care, making even his most blustery slogans—e.g., “Don’t Allow My CONFIDENCE to Offend Your INSECURITY”—seem a touch less boastful.

The all-caps start to wear, but given the accomplishments of its source, this is a helpful addition to the self-help genre.
