艰难：我通往真正权力的旅程

特里·克鲁斯，“艰难：我通往真正权力的旅程”
《布鲁克林九星泰瑞·克鲁斯》讲述了他毕生对力量的痴迷，以及他如何在所有错误的地方寻找力量，最终找到力量的故事
特里·克鲁斯（Terry Crews）花了几十年时间培养他的健美体格和虚张声势。从表面上看，他似乎是不可战胜的：他逃离了虐待他的父亲，在NFL成为职业球员，并闯入了好莱坞的迷人世界。但他对外表强硬的执着最终变成了一场令人筋疲力尽的表演，压抑自己的情绪让情绪战胜了他，导致他上瘾，并威胁到他生命中最重要的人际关系。
现在，克鲁斯正在分享一个从未被讲述过的原始故事，讲述他寻求坚韧的真谛。在《艰难》一书中，他审视了生活的各个领域，在这些领域中，他拼命寻求控制男性气概、羞耻感、性、种族主义经历和人际关系，并讲述了他在根除根深蒂固的有毒男性气概并最终面对不安全感、痛苦记忆和有限信念时所面临的挫折和胜利。其结果不仅是一个扣人心弦的故事，讲述了一个男人与自己的斗争，以及他如何最终使自己的思想正确，而且是对文化规范和禁忌的大胆控诉，这些规范和禁忌要求男人外表强硬，内心软弱。
有了“硬汉”，克鲁斯的转型之旅为那些认为自己是“硬汉”但感到不满足的人提供了一个榜样；任何与拖延或自我破坏作斗争的人；任何准备好实现真正持久自我控制的人。
Tough: My Journey to True Power
Terry Crews, “Tough: My Journey to True Power”
From Brooklyn Nine-Nine star Terry Crews, the deeply personal story of his lifelong obsession with strength—and how, after looking for it in all the wrong places, he finally found it
Terry Crews spent decades cultivating his bodybuilder physique and bravado. 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.
Now Crews is sharing the raw, never-before-told story of his quest to find the true meaning of toughness. In Tough, he examines arenas of life where he desperately sought control—masculinity, shame, sex, experiences with racism, and relationships—and recounts the setbacks and victories he faced while uprooting deeply ingrained toxic masculinity and finally confronting his insecurities, painful memories, and limiting beliefs. The result is not only the gripping story of a man’s struggle against himself and how he finally got his mind right, but a bold indictment of the cultural norms and taboos that ask men to be outwardly tough while leaving them inwardly weak.
With Tough, Crews’s journey of transformation offers a model for anyone who considers themselves a “tough guy” but feels unfulfilled; anyone struggling with procrastination or self-sabotage; and anyone ready to achieve true, lasting self-mastery.
