"This book was well written with great nuggets of inspiration. I started reading it electronically, but bought a paper version to give to my son on his birthday. I know it will give him inspiration and motivation to unlock all the greatness that is within him. I really related to the authors’ personal experiences. Great read and will read again at different parts of my life for guidance."
