Showing results for "The Parables" in Motivation & Self-Improvement

Not a leisurely drive to the beach or a weekend campout-a wide open adventure that would take him 17,000 miles from his home on Canada's Pacific Coast all the way to South Africa. His journey - a harrowing series of false starts, long days, and narrow escapes- taught him about "becoming unstoppable," not only in pursuing adventure but in daily life and business as well.

The Plane Parable is for you: a could-be, would-be, should-be leader. Lift your idea off the ground, learn to lead in turbulent times, and discover what it means to secede as you make your dreams happen and leave a lasting legacy. The world is waiting for your dream. It's time you made “someday” today.
