Rashad Jennings - The IF in Life

CONTENTS

PRAISE FOR RASHAD JENNINGS THE IF IN LIFE

The IF in Life... The title alone speaks volumes. As a fellow NY Giant, Ive come to know Rashad as a genuine mentor. He taught me the difference between being an NFL player and a pro-athlete. His deeply missed presence in the locker room is a great testament to the incredible obstacles he has tackled to get to where he is today. This book chronicles that story, and gives you great principles for handling the IFs of life along the way! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Although we all come from different backgrounds and have different stories, humanity has this in common: we only get one shot at this life. Rashad has written a book that will help anybody who wants to get out of what could have been and start making the most of the opportunities we have. I know The IF in Life will be a blessing to many!

In all my seasons on Dancing with the Stars, Ive never had a partner so committed to hard work and excellence. I know and love so much about Rashad, but this book reveals things that I could never imagine having to go through. More people need to read this and be affected by his philosophy in life. Youll fall in love with Rashads story. And youll be inspired to become your best self! The IF in Life would be a great movie someday!

Rashads tenacity and determination are infectious. The IF in Life is a great story for all audiences that is filled with precious principles for living and achieving your dreams. I absolutely love how Rashads mom, dad, and brothers rallied around him in his childhood times of need. It just shows how much the loving support of a strong and committed family can do.
