Not to be outdone by Jason Mraz and his NY booksigning last night, Olympic Gold-Medalist Michael Phelps was on hand at the Barnes & Noble on 5th Avenue in NYC also last night to sign copies of his new book No Limits: The Will to Succeed. Here are a few pics from his in-store appearance last night:

From the Amazon.com book description: No Limits explores the hard work, commitment, and sacrifice that go into reaching any goal. Whether it is on the starting block during an Olympic swim meet or in the weight room on a typical day, Phelps’s dedication has led him to unparalleled excellence. Filled with anecdotes from family members, friends, teammates, and his coach, No Limits gives a behind-the-scenes look at the makings of a real champion. One of Phelps’s mottos is “Performance Is Reality,” and it typifies his attitude toward achieving his goals. It’s easy to get bogged down by doubt or to lose focus when a challenge seems out of reach, but Phelps believes that you can accomplish anything if you fully commit yourself to it. Using the eight final swims of the Beijing Olympics as a model, No Limits is a step-by-step guide to realizing one’s dream.

While I am not particularly fond of autobiographical books written by sports stars (especially with ghost writers, like Alan Abrahamson who is also credited as an author of this book), I am a bit curious to read this book about Michael Phelps. His determination to achieve his goals is very inspiring … I think I’d like to know about about how he has been able to achieve many of his dreams at such a young age. I dunno … something about Phelpsie is so compelling to me.
