Puke & Rally: It's not about the setback, it's about the comeback

by Rob Bell

Overview

We all have puked.

No one can avoid it.

Everyone that has reached a level of success and significance has messed up and failed. There will be turmoil and extreme adversity. Despite our mistakes, pain, and even being told that we are not good enough we can still rally!

It’s not about the setback, it’s about the comeback!

Whether you’re an entrepreneur, coach, executive, or full-time mom or dad, you’ll face setbacks.

In this book you’ll learn and apply:

• Why just one mistake derails the best plans, but you’ll rally if you can overcome this error.

• Being told or shown that you’re not good enough is actually the key to success.

• Why more people die coming down Mount Everest than climbing up.

• That the process is more important than the product.

• The greatest mental skill that you’ll need to comeback.

• The most powerful lightning strikes are from out of the blue.

Editorial Reviews

"I became the Last Human Standing at the notorious, Big's Backyard Ultra, through a lot of epic failures. Behind every success is a whole lot of 'puking.' What makes all the difference is the 'rally.' Dr. Rob dissects the PUKE & RALLY phenomenon and lights a fire at the same time. You can't walk away from this read and not be inspired." — Maggie Guterl, Winner 2019 Big’s Backyard Ultra

"When I won my first PGA Tour event, Dr. Rob also completed a 50-mile ultra that same weekend. So, I wasn't going to let him get all the glory. Puke & Rally is the calling card to success because if you want something bad enough, you'll encounter setbacks. The key is 'will you comeback?'" — Tyler Duncan, PGA Tour

"There will be major setbacks on our journey. But as Dr. Rob writes in PUKE & Rally, the process is more important than the product! It's about who we transform into because of the trials that we'll encounter and overcome." ¾ Martin Rooney, Coach, and Best Selling Author of Coach To Coach

"I've interviewed hundreds of millionaires on my podcast and setbacks are common amongst them all. Failure is an asset. It is a gift that will direct us toward the correct path in our life. As Dr. Rob writes in PUKE & RALLY, failure is painful, but the required ingredient is how we respond to the adversity. It's all about the comeback!" ¾ Jaime Masters, Eventual Millionaire

“We all experience failure and setbacks in our lives. But the truly successful people are those who take these negative experiences and turn them into a positive learning opportunity. In Puke & Rally, Dr. Rob Bell provides a mental framework you can use to overcome any challenge that life throws your way. Whether you’re facing a personal or professional obstacle, this book will help you meet this challenge head on, learn from this experience, and then emerge as a stronger, tougher person.” — Steve Scott, author of Habit Stacking

"In this smart, fast-moving book, Dr. Rob Bell lays the foundation to help you get up, get going, and get ahead no matter what life or business throws your way. If you're looking to upgrade your career, your business, and your results - look no further. The resilience and mental toughness handbook for the rest of us is here.
