“I think one of the primary goals of every parent is to pass on to their children the wisdom they have gained after decades of life experience. Well, our guest today, David Dennis, has done just that. He wrote a book, originally intended for his five children, that has become a life-guide for all of us—young and old.
In his book, Gameness, David Dennis offers four very practical and immensely powerful principles of a life worth living.”

Midwestern Book Review Critique
“Critique: Essentially a DIY instructional guide written from a Christian perspective for personal transformation and self-improvement, Gameness: Land on your feet, not on your feelings is impressively well written and thoroughly ‘reader friendly’ in organization and presentation. An inspiring and ‘real world’ world practical compendium of observation, insight, personal experience, and encouragement, Gameness is highly recommended for community library Self-Help/Self-Improvement collections. It should be also be noted for personal reading lists that Gameness is also readily available in a digital book format (Kindle, $8.49).”

The Work Ethic podcast, episode 78, featuring David Dennis
“What’s gameness? We often hear the cryptic question, ‘Got game?’ But gameness isn’t just about sports . . . it’s about life. It’s a person’s ability to live beyond the inevitable problems and pains that threaten to derail us from our fullest potential. It’s realizing that God didn’t put us on earth merely to survive . . . but to take charge of our lives! Gameness means living each day with a never-quit mindset, resoluteness to a purpose, a fighting spirit, and the will required to act beyond our feelings. What is it about those who face life’s biggest heartaches and find a way to bounce back and turn setbacks into breakthroughs? They’ve found the secret of making life work, and in this book, David Dennis explains the secret to all of us. These aren’t academic concepts to David. He has lived them, refined them, and now, he’s imparting his wisdom to the rest of us. Buckle up, hold on tight, and be ready to be challenged like never before.”

“It isn’t your accolades and accomplishments that will propel you to success. It isn’t the recommendation letters you collect in your padfolio, it isn’t your winning smile and poise, it isn’t your desire to climb the ladder that will get you where you need to go in life.”
“If you truly want to achieve greatness, you cannot ignore the indispensable importance of developing Gameness, the never-quit mindset that carries you through the tough moments in life. With this fighting spirit, you can close the distance between who you are and who you want to be.”
