Maniacal Fanaticism - by Imamu Tomlinson (Paperback)

About the Book

Maniacal Fanaticism is not a book about inspiration. It's a sharp, unflinching look at how high achievers actually operate--and why talent, charm, and pedigree are wildly overrated.

Book Synopsis

Maniacal Fanaticism: Success Slightly Different is not a book about inspiration. It's a sharp, unflinching look at how high achievers actually operate--and why talent, charm, and pedigree are wildly overrated.

Dr. Imamu Osei Tomlinson, award-winning healthcare CEO, draws from sports, psychology, and performance data to argue that greatness comes from a different place: uncomfortable traits like doubt, blame, and obsession. Through vivid examples--Michael Jordan's ruthless execution, Jerry Rice's overlooked draft, George Gervin's improbable rise--he shows how elite performance often grows from pressure, not pedigree.

At its core is the Maniacal Fanaticism Flywheel: a four-part cycle of motivation, focus, execution, and reinforcement. It's a framework not for feeling better--but for doing better.

For business leaders, athletes, students, and professionals tired of vague advice, this book offers a new lens. If you're seeking true personal growth, elite performance, and honest insight into motivation strategy, this is your manual.

Forget what you were told about success. Here's how it actually works.
