About the Book
I learned more about myself in two hours watching
Rocky than I ever did in school.”
Rocky Balboa, although fictional, is a famous character that symbolizes victory and success amid failures and disappointments. Played by Sylvester Stallone, his life story is one that will always be inspirational. And so was the life of the author.
Cue the Rocky Music is a memoir for anyone who has ever dared to follow their dreams or for those who were told they couldn’t. You won’t know whether to wince or smile as young Mike wears costumes and faces bullies with a lack of physical prowess. Soon, he goes toe-to-toe with life and finds the courage to face every punch it has to offer.
Incredibly blending humor with motivation, Cue the Rocky Music chronicles the author’s life and documents how it has relatively resembled that of Rocky’s. Through its pages, you will learn how after a series of connections with Stallone himself, the author’s life goes from movie reel to real as he grows closer toward his destiny.
