Tell us a little about yourself. As a young man I went to work for an employment
agency. I became facinated by the fact that some
people were much more successful on their job
than others. I begin to study success patterns in
people. Over the years I started speaking on this
subject. I have also been an active Christian.
This has led me to write and teach principles of
successful living from a Christian pespective.
What was your motivation behind this project? I was asked to teach a Sunday School class for
young married couples. I wrote out an outline on
the major decisions that couples need to make. As
I looked at the outline I thought, "this would
make a great book" so I started writing.
What do you hope folks will gain from this project? It would be my goal to help people improve the
quality of their life through better decision
making. And to point people to the best decision
they will ever make, turning their life over to
the Lordship of Jesus Christ.
Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists? My parents were a very great influence on me.
They were wonderful people. I have had many great
friends. Charlie "Tremendious" Jones, Cavette
Robert, Og Mandino, Robert Schuller and Robert
Conklin were all speakers and writers that I
enjoy.
Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know: You can improve your life by using the ideas in
this book. I have lived these principles and they
do work.
