At the end of each chapter there is a place to write the name of a person who epitomizes that word, and the admonition to go tell them. I haven't done that; if I had, I would not have finished reading it in 4 days. I was inspired to think of what people have had a profound influence in my life. In many cases it was the same person. Now, to come up with the courage to tell them the positive influence they have had on my life.

The end of the book includes "Kevin's Book of Greats." The next assignment is to create my own book of greats. I am starting on it now.

Coming from a company that made it's business on coaching, this is understandable, but here it is:
"Harvey (Mackay) recently told me that he has a coach for almost every area of his life. He has a speaking coach. He has a writing coach. He has a business coach. He has a financial coach. He has a life coach. He has a tennis coach. He has a running coach. He has a golf coach. He even has a Ping-Pong coach. In all, he has more than a dozen coaches. And why? Because he's realized how much more he can accomplish through the aid of good coaching. He understands how invaluable it is to go to someone who is at the very top of the learning curve and be tutored by them. It's helped him succeed in business, hei's helped him succeed as an athlete, and it's helped him develop into one of the world's most sought after writers and speakers. Coaches have enriched all the areas of his life that are meaningful to him." (Page 171) ( )

This book has a simple structure: every chapter is based on a word, each word a variation on the book's main word (and, it turns out, rubric): Aspire! Motivational and educational. ( )

It's just amazing !!!
Actually, I don't want it to end, I want to learn more words..
and it's really interesting how a word consists of a thousand pictures, as
a picture consists of a thousand words !
I am hoping for another book by Kevin Hall as good as this one !
