What People Say

This book is amazing. Being right out of college and reading this has helped me get out of my shell and realize what I need to do to live an extraordinary life.

"This book is a gift! JF's "wild kingdom" analogies are new, inventive - and brilliant! I was honored to write the foreword of this wonderful book and encourage you to read more there - then let every page be another step forward in YOUR personal success story!."

"I've known Jerry for 50 years and this is his life wrapped up in masterpiece of content that can elevate your life to a path unimagined. His disciplined mental approach to success through work ethic and resilience is unparalleled in anything I've ever read. These are the same concepts that elevated my golf career to 8 PGA tour wins, a Ryder cup team member and a Senior U.S. Open Championship. I only wish I had this information as a young man 40 years ago just starting out on the PGA Tour. You will be inspired!"

“Do the work” - my fitness clients have heard me repeat this for 20 years. And Jerry, he has done the work, in every conceivable realm of human development. It shows in his results and in the life he has led. I wish I'd had a mentor like him growing up; I had to figure stuff out the hard way. For those who can heed his advice, listen and take note, the ideas contained in these pages can reinvent your perspective and shave years of "learning the hard way" off your schedule.
