The reason for the meeting is the publication of her new book \u201cVolim \u017eivot\u201c(I Love Life). The book relates the sports successes and the incredible life story of Sandra Paovi\u0107, who, after the end of her sports career, became a motivational speaker for athletes, pupils and companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She presented her new book to President Milanovi\u0107 today. &#8220;The book is not only about life and sports, about the ups and downs, about victories and defeats, but it is a book about hope and love. With this book, I wanted to tell young athletes and children to be brave, not to give up and, most importantly, that they are already winners if they did their best. The goal of the book is for children to hear my story, to learn from my victories and defeats, and to understand that this is all part of life. That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s called &#8220;Volim \u017eivot&#8221;. I am pleased that the President received us and thus supported the idea of \u200b\u200bmy book&#8221;, said Sandra Paovi\u0107.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;An incredible person, Sandra Paovi\u0107. I think that children should listen to this story as a kind of guide through life. That fight and will for life, that cheerfulness and creativity of her and her husband \u2013 I tip my hat to you&#8221;, said President Milanovi\u0107.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The book \u201cVolim \u017eivot\u201c was edited by \u017deljko \u017dutelija and is actually a sequel to her 2017 book \u201cRo\u0111ena da pobje\u0111uje\u201c (Born to Win). The book covers key periods of her life: her childhood, her exile from her war-torn native Vukovar, her sports successes and the car accident that marked and changed her life. The book mainly talks about the last seven years of Sandra&#8217;s life after winning the gold medal at the 2016 Paralympic Games in Rio de Janeiro and her retirement from professional table tennis, including the difficulties faced by people with disabilities in Croatia today.<\/p>\n\n\n<!--GALLERY BLOCK-->\n<div class=\"c-lightbox-gallery js-lightbox\">\n                <!--single-->\n            <a data-no-swup class=\"c-lightbox-gallery__single js-lightbox-single\"\n               href=\"https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/DSC_3526-1024x576.jpg\"\n               style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/DSC_3526-768x432.jpg')\"><\/a>\n            <!--end single-->\n                    <!--single-->\n            <a data-no-swup class=\"c-lightbox-gallery__single js-lightbox-single\"\n               href=\"https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/DSC_3549-1024x576.jpg\"\n               style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/DSC_3549-768x432.jpg')\"><\/a>\n            <!--end single-->\n                    <!--single-->\n            <a data-no-swup class=\"c-lightbox-gallery__single js-lightbox-single\"\n               href=\"https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/DSC_3573-1024x576.jpg\"\n               style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/DSC_3573-768x432.jpg')\"><\/a>\n            <!--end single-->\n                    <!--single-->\n            <a data-no-swup class=\"c-lightbox-gallery__single js-lightbox-single\"\n               href=\"https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/DSC_3585-1024x576.jpg\"\n               style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/DSC_3585-768x432.jpg')\"><\/a>\n            <!--end single-->\n        <\/div>\n<!--end GALLERY BLOCK-->\n\n\n\n<p>PHOTO: Office of the President of the Republic of Croatia \/ Tomislav Bu\u0161ljeta<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The President of the Republic Zoran Milanovi\u0107 received today the most decorated Croatian table tennis player, Olympian and Paralympian Sandra Paovi\u0107.
