Dr. Myron Rolle visits Google to discuss his book "The 2% Way: How
a Philosophy of Small Improvements Took Me to Oxford, the NFL, and
Neurosurgery". This book tells the story of his incredible journey,
revealing how a strong work ethic, deep faith, and the family
values instilled by his Bahamian immigrant parents set the stage
for the transformative life philosophy that enabled him to overcome
adversity, defy expectations, and create a life of meaning and
purpose.
Not long ago, Myron L. Rolle was a college football player
recruited by the Tennessee Titans of the National Football League.
He faced a kind of hyper-successful future that most children only
dream about—especially a kid who had to fight stereotypes at every
turn. But he had different dreams. He had trained his whole life to
win big in both football and medicine. The sports world had
difficulty understanding his intellect and the medical world had
difficulty grasping his passion for neurosurgery and football. Both
require a kind of diligence that borders on fanaticism. Now, as a
Harvard neurosurgeon, Dr. Rolle is on the frontlines facing off
against his latest opponent, COVID-19. We are clearly not going to
eradicate the virus overnight, but if we use THE 2% WAY, we are
certain to overcome this powerful adversary.
