Have you ever read a book by someone who seems to have all of the answers and has never made a
notable mistake on their magic carpet ride to fame, fortune, and self-fulfillment? I agree with you; I
pretty much want to smack them over the back of their head with a copy of their high-gloss, $60
hardcover book as well.
For most of us mere mortals, the only part of our lives that are unscathed by the slings and arrows of
outrageous fortune is our indubitable belief in our ability to persevere and ultimately win the day
even when we are at our lowest points. In other words, we do not measure success or failure by how
much money we have in the bank – although a healthy sum is always welcome, but in the richness of
our experiences and certainty in our ability to pursue our dreams no matter how unbelievable to
others they may seem.
This book charts such a journey – my unbelievable journey, taking you along for a memorable ride
with some of the country’s most interesting and enigmatic business personalities and political figures
showing you what is really behind the curtain of success. What may surprise you when you turn the
last page and close the back cover is that the only difference between them and you is their
indomitable will to succeed despite their shortcomings and like me, they have more than their share
of shortcomings. In other words, this isn’t a rah, rah book patting you on the back, saying, “go get em,
Kid.” It is a kick you in the ass you can do it book that boldly states, “if you can think it, you can solve
It” go get em, kid.
What do you say, ready to go get em!
Using a collection of business stories from the author’s life, this book argues that we should not
measure success or failure by how much money we have (or don’t have) in the bank but by the
richness of our experiences and our confidence in our ability to pursue our dreams no matter
how unbelievable they may seem to others. Rather than a “rah rah, go get ‘em, kid” approach,
this book offers readers an honest “behind the curtains” look at what it really takes to make it
in this world. Using the author’s own experiences as the primary examples, it demonstrates
that success isn’t just a matter of talent or opportunity but rather an indomitable will to
succeed despite our shortcomings and failures.
