Electrifying! He is an excellent story-teller, and I really felt like I was in a LIVE AUDIENCE watching his prop-filled demonstrations. From his personal story of overcoming a verbally-abusive teacher who marked him as "dumb" in the 1st grade, to his ascension to a top-tier, world-class speaker and trainer-as well as his humility through it all-was a great testament to the strength and resilience of the human spirit! It is a fairly easy read, and worth a place in one's permanent library. I call him the "Attitude Man!" Even the cover picture captures this affirming, encouraging personality in vivid detail. It's a perfect holiday gift to lift spirits that are often melancholy--or for any season!
