The New York Times bestselling author of Chase the Lion reveals seven powerful habits that can help you tackle God-sized goals by turning yesterday’s regrets and tomorrow’s anxieties into fuel for a better today.

You’ll discover how to:
- Flip the Script: If you want to change your life, start by changing your story.
- Kiss the Wave: The obstacle is not the enemy; the obstacle is the way.
- Eat the Frog: If you want God to do the super, you’ve got to do the natural.

Industry Reviews
"Those who have never run a marathon might find it surprising that the scariest place to be when running a marathon isn't the dreaded 'wall' at mile 20; it's the starting line. Why? Because the runner is overwhelmed by the difficultly and scope of road ahead and has lost touch with the present moment. In Win the Day, Mark equips readers to tackle their long-term goals by winning the moment in front of them. I've found this principle to be of paramount importance to not only my athletic success but also to successful day-to-day living.
