When the moment arrives to realise a dream, will you be ready? Will the years of effort pay off? Will you be able to peak your performance, technically, mentally and emotionally? Will you be able to handle the pressure?
For 21 years, Alex Tofalides pursued a dream of fencing at the Olympics, first as part of the British elite programme, then for Cyprus under his own direction. He had become a British and European champion, but had narrowly missed going to London, Rio and Tokyo. Now he was in the final of the European qualifier, one fight away from Paris 2024.
In this book, he shares what it takes to finally realise your dream to perform at the biggest games of all. The psychology. Your narrative. The analysis. The processes. The regime. Your resilience. As he finally overcomes his doubts and limitations, you will learn what it takes to perform in the moment when it all really matters.
COMMENTS
‘Alex’s story is proof that dreams are worth pursuing, no matter how long they take or how many obstacles lie in the way. I hope his words inspire you, as they have inspired me, to think strategically, to believe fiercely and, above all, to never give up.’
Theo Paphitis, retail magnate and former Dragons’ Den panellist
'Over time, Alex built an approach grounded in courage, honesty and a determination to keep learning … Fighting for Your Dream captures that journey brilliantly and I’d recommend it to athletes, coaches and anyone striving to perform at their best.'
Katie Warriner, performance psychologist to winners of Olympic gold with Team GB
‘Alex distils the hard-won lessons of his 20 year quest to become Cyprus’s first Olympic fencer into principles that resonate deeply with me as an investor and leader. This book is a compelling reminder that performance under pressure is both an art and a discipline.’
Babatunde Soyoye, co-founder and managing partner, Helios Investment Partners
‘Alex takes you on a journey filled with passion, sacrifice and unshakeable belief. This book is a true inspiration for athletes and non-athletes alike.’
Pavlos Kontides, double Olympic medallist in sailing

Derecho al desistimiento
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
