Six time SprintCup Champion Jimmie Johnson opens up about his road to success in one of the most demanding- and unpredictable- sports on the planet in the cover story for the March 2016 issue of  SUCCESS Magazine, on newsstands February 10th.  In an exclusive interview with sportswriter Don Yeager, Johnson opens up about the hard-won lessons he has learned throughout his career and shares insights on how to build a team strong enough to go the extra mile.

“We have a great team…And we are constantly adjusting, working to get better. Last year’s accomplishments are just that… last year’s. Heck, last week’s accomplishments don’t mean much around here.”
