// The book
Cedric De Vlieger · published by Lannoo
“Real strength does not mean you never stumble. It means you refuse to stay down.”
From the book
Kracht is een Keuze is written in Dutch. There is no English edition yet, so this is a Dutch book you are ordering.
// Why this book
Why do some people stay down when they fall, while others get back up? The difference is not talent or luck. It is a way of working that you can learn.
This book gives you that way of working: the discipline to start, and the structure to keep going when it gets hard.
Not a book you read and put away. A book you take with you.
// What you get out of it
Operational stories from twenty years in the Special Units, each one translated to your daily reality. A clear structure that takes you through it step by step. And the raw honesty to look at yourself as you really are.
Plus the Mission Manual: a free workbook with exercises, so you can put it to work right away.
See the Mission Manual// What readers say
A bestseller at Standaard Boekhandel, in three categories at once. Into its fourth print within weeks. But what readers write says more than the numbers.
#1 in Non-fiction · People & Health · Self-care & Psychology
“I have worked on personal development for years, but I never really had anything to fall back on when doubt crept in. This book fills exactly that role.”
“Not the macho story of an ex-special forces man letting his ego do the talking. Quite the opposite. That modesty, combined with real depth, is what makes it so powerful.”
“I have read plenty of books in this genre, but this one tops them all.”
“A hands-on source of inspiration, full of practical tools to take charge of your own life.”
“This book will not disappear onto a shelf.”
“It held a mirror right up to my face.”
// In the press
“Put people back into their own strength.”
“Ask yourself: is this the life you really want?”
“From insecure teenager to elite officer.”
“From the Special Units to bestseller.”
