Had Enough of Feeling Stuffed into a Bucket?
At one time or another, everyone feels cramped and restricted, unable to
move forward, held back from getting the most out of life. A dead-end
job, no job, a troubled childhood, a ruined relationship, few prospects,
having to start over--your dream of a great life is shrinking day by
day. But you can break through the crush. It's time to dream large, time
to rise to your full height, time to grow and flourish.
In Can't Shove a Great Life into a Small Dream, Tony Magee helps you
give shape to the life of your dreams with everything you need to get
where you want to go. Here are 12 Life-Essentials crafted from his own
incredible journey, and wrapped in the wisdom of the world's most
successful people. So make room in your dream for a new life: informed,
inspired, and invincible! You'll discover that:
* Your attitude will make or break you--give yours a lift
* Happiness is linked to purpose--"What on earth are you
