In his early 20s, Curtis Jackson, known as 50 Cent, rose to the heights of fame and power in the cutthroat music business. A decade ago, the multi-platinum selling rap artist decided to pivot. His ability to adapt to change was demonstrated when he became the executive producer and star of Power, a high-octane, gripping crime drama centered around a drug kingpin's family. The series quickly became "appointment" television, leading to Jackson inking a four-year, $150 million contract with the Starz network - the most lucrative deal in premium cable history.

On the outside, he seemed invincible: he escaped his abusive father, went pro in the NFL, and broke into the glamorous world of Hollywood. But his fixation with appearing outwardly tough eventually turned into an exhausting performance in which repressing his emotions let them get the better of him—leading him into addiction and threatening the most important relationships in his life.

Summary
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!

This is not a book, it's an article
Was quite disappointed by this "book". I'd call it an article to tell people how great Dwayne 'the Rock' Johnson is.
Don't get me wrong, I think the guys great, hence buying the book. But this book isn't what you need to read to realise that

Painful narrating
The narrator is terrible, extremely robotic and speaks at 100mph none stop.
I've tried by coming back to this audio book several times, but it's impossible to put up with.
I'd give it no stars if possible.

I feel like I just read a Wikipedia page
While the information is interesting, there's nothing here that can't be easily found on the internet. I was hoping for some insightful information from The Rock. there needs to be way more detail about the events of his life. A one hour read should have been a red flag.

Great info on The Rock’s life
I love the story and I truly identify a lot with his young life. Now if I can just manage to get the my adult life to have some similarities I will be on to something. The only thing I did not like is I wish he would have narrated his own story. I feel like authors who do that have more success with their books because listeners can feel the soul of the words coming through their voice.

This book put the fire back in my soul
These last two years have been the hardest of my life. From being unemployed, almost becoming homeless. Feeling like a total loser and not being able to take care of my kids. Depression took over. Even went to therapy and I didn’t help as much. But after listening to this audiobook. And seeing what the rock went through. It lifted my spirits. The man is a great icon. And I’ve always looked up to him. Especially during his wrestling day. I’m still fighting the good fight to get back on my feet. I’m a big gym person and I just want to be the best father I could be for my kids. So I’m in this fight. So if anyone is thinking about checking this out it’s a must. I’m also now an entrepreneur. I’m just trying to be the best person I can be. So much thanks so much praise to the Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Hope one day I get to meet you in person to thank you.
