2 SHORT ON TIME
the constant stream of questions from others
asking how to live a happy and fulfilling life and
I knew I had to get this book out into the world.
Many people want more money, a new job, or
a happier relationship, but they are not willing to
put in the time and work to make any of it happen.
Those people drive me nuts. There are so many
get-rich-quick schemes out there that I wanted to
create a road map that people could actually use
to achieve their dreams successfully.
Amazing things happen only if you work
hard—really hard. And they happen only if you
are good to others. No one can do it alone, and it
is the people around you who are going to help
make your success happen. When you are kind
toward others, they will return the kindness to
you. Listening and kindness are two skills that
don’t get taught in school, yet they are crucial for
you to succeed in any capacity.
Life is short. You never know if you’ll be given
tomorrow, so get out there and make the most
of it. At its heart, that is what this book is about.
