From politics to the Nobel Peace Prize, each remarkable individual offers a unique story of grit that will resonate with readers of all ages to inspire grit for greatness.

LeBron James’ life embodies resilience. He was born in a single-parent household and grew up in a poverty-stricken neighborhood in Akron, Ohio. As a child, he witnessed violence, drug abuse, and police sirens wailing at night. He used this as a motivation to pursue a better life, and his exit strategy involved basketball.
Fortunately, James came out unscathed. He was given an opportunity to chase his dreams through his positive attitude in life with the help of good people within the community. He was introduced to basketball at nine years old and has never looked back since then. His passion for the sport and his determination to succeed significantly contributed to his superstardom. His records and awards included being a four-time NBA Most Valuable Player of the Year, participating in the NBA All-Star Game 16 times, and being selected as the All-Star MVP three times, to name a few. The journey to prominence was definitely not easy for James. However, he has an exceptional ability to “just keep on moving” amid adversities.
