About this ebook

Living Excellence is a powerful reflection on the place of excellence in our society. Former Olympic athlete turned coach and sports analyst Dominick Gauthier takes us to the heart of high-level sport by deconstructing the myths surrounding victory and well-being. Through personal anecdotes and experiences with some of the greatest Olympic champions, he makes a striking observation. Today, the fear of failure and the obsession with well-being have weakened the culture of performance. Yet excellence is neither easy nor unhealthy. It is a choice, a way of life based on hard work, resilience, and passion. Gauthier advocates a balanced approach where the quest for victory should not come at the expense of well-being, but thanks to it. He questions the overprotection of young athletes, early specialization, and the excesses of toxic coaching. This book is for everyone. Athletes, coaches, professionals, executives, and parents will find within its pages, an invitation to rethink our relationship with success and rediscover the pride of aiming high without compromising between ambition and balance.
