Ann Arbor, MI, June 22, 2017 (Newswire.com) - Success is never owned. It’s rented, and the rent is due every day. This is Sports Agent and best-selling author Daniel Milstein’s personal credo, and what has fueled his do-or-die ability to overcome extreme adversity and reach the pinnacle of success in multiple fields. In his fourth book Rule # 1 Don’t Be #2, Milstein motivates like never before, sharing the deeply inspirational stories of his clients who’ve overcome insurmountable odds on the way to the top of their game in the ruthlessly competitive sport of hockey.
Milstein’s Family of Companies includes Gold Star Hockey, whose client roster reflects many household names, including Pavel Datsyuk, formerly of the Detroit Red Wings- now with SKA, Artemi Panarin with the Chicago Blackhawks, Nikita Kucherov with Tampa Bay Lightning, Nikita Zaitsev with the Toronto Maple Leafs, among others – all of whom know firsthand that you get what you work for, not what you wish for, another of Milstein’s many principles that resonate throughout the book.
"Gold Star Hockey client Pavel Datsyuk can attest to the importance of remaining committed to your goal in the face of crushing disappointment. Datsyuk dreamed of playing professional hockey, yet was passed over 657 times in the National Hockey League drafts. Refusing to give up his dream, Datsyuk continued to work hard until he was picked up by the Detroit Red Wings and went on to help them win two Stanley Cup Championships, and he'll no doubt take his place of honor one day in the Hockey Hall of Fame."
Daniel Milstein, CEO, Gold Star Hockey, NHLPA Certified Player Agent
With a mentor’s heart and unyielding belief that choice, not circumstance, determines your success, Milstein packs the countless, powerful achievements of those who’ve personally inspired him into every page of Rule #1, Don’t Be #2 and unapologetically demands that his readers identify and overcome their own obstacles to success.
