The Tokens: 11 Lessons to Help Build the Foundation of Success and Find Your Path to Greatness

by Greg S. Reid, Jeff Levitan

The Tokens tells the fascinating story of Eric, a skilled craftsman and builder. During the course of his business journey, Eric struggles to take his burgeoning company to the next level. A chance encounter introduces him to Carl, a retired multimillionaire. Carl offers Eric the opportunity to take any material and supplies from his log cabin in exchange for demolishing the building. While working on the cabin, Eric discovers an unexpected and mystifying gift from Carl, a note and a wooden token.

As his relationship with Carl evolves, Eric is faced with countless business challenges and growth. Carl becomes a close friend and indispensable mentor offering his wisdom, knowledge, and business tips (tokens). Eric applies these valuable lessons and discovers the importance of the core concepts that created success for the members of Carl's mastermind group. Along the way, Eric also learns to appreciate the insights and advice from his own grandfather.

The Tokens is centered on the building and construction industry and each business lesson helps to build a foundation of success that is so vital for sustaining growth and overcoming challenges. Written by successful entrepreneurs and devout instructors of personal and professional development, The Tokens outlines the eleven points for developing and maintaining a successful building or construction business with many of the lessons applicable to any business. The authors explain how to build confidence, become a person of integrity and optimism, create successful relationships, learn to overcome obstacles, and much more.

The Tokens is an informative, entertaining, and heartwarming parable that motivates, inspires, and teaches.

This is the second book I've read by Dr. Greg S. Reid. The first was 3 Feet from Gold. Both books were written in a "storytelling" style which is unique for "self-help" books. Both of these books were engaging and left me eager for my next walk (when I listen to my audio books). I appreciate the wisdom provided in both books. I'm going through a bit of a rough patch in my business and these books have helped me work through my journey. Because of these books, I'm actively seeking a "mentor" who I'm sure will appear at some point because "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear. "
