About this listen

If you’re looking to be inspired by someone who has truly made the most of life’s opportunities, then listen to this remarkable story of one of today’s most well-known celebrities.

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is best known as a former professional wrestler who later came to dominate Hollywood with a series of blockbuster movies. His powerful on-screen presence and strong physique give the impression that he effortlessly reached global success, yet Dwayne faced a series of challenges and setbacks as he rose to the top.

From being homeless as a child and later having little more than $7 in his pocket to facing the reality that his dream career in football was over, Dwayne’s life hasn’t always been a linear track of successes. However, rather than let this bring him down, he never gave up and pushed himself to be the best he could in everything he applied himself to.

If you want to discover the story behind Dwayne’s extraordinary success, this book takes you on a journey from his childhood to how he became one of Hollywood’s most well-known action figures. Strip away the glitz and the glamor, and you find a remarkable story of persistence, commitment, and deeply ingrained work ethics that kept Dwayne moving forward to where he is today. If you want proof that success is rarely served on a silver platter and the majority of successful people have to sweat blood and tears to reach their goals, then Dwayne’s life story will give you exactly that.

In this book, you will find:

  • The story of Dwayne’s childhood and how it shaped the strong core values he lives by today
  • Why his football dreams came to an end and how he became one of WWE’s greatest wrestlers
  • How he moved into Hollywood and became a successful A-list actor - even without any acting background, experience, or qualifications
  • The main lessons he learned throughout his life
  • Dwayne’s 10 rules of success and how you can apply them, too

Are you ready to take a journey through life in the shoes of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson? Then buy now, and let's get started!

A very well detailed book, never once lost my attention, very short so it is treat for a commute or short journey, but perfect if you want to learn about one of today’s most influential mindsets

I have always liked Dwayne Johnson, but I must admit before listening to this review I would not have considered using one of my credits to buy his autobiography. Actually, I hadn't realised this was a review of his autobiographical works before I bought this book, but I think the author has done a terrific job condensing the key milestones and outcomes. My only complaint would be that the end of the first chapter starts to sound like someone just reading out an IMDB filmography list and isn't particularly value adding. However, this didn't detract from the overall review which I thoroughly enjoyed.

Typically I have avoided autobiographies in my reading, (moreover due to my own literary ignorance) however I will be getting more of the titles by Influential Individuals to see if the full book would be something I'd find interesting. These reviews are also short enough to act as a quick reference point.

overall, I would highly recommend this series of reviews.

Well worth a listen!
