by RobParsons (Author)

Synopsis

Jack's father was one of the most successful entrepreneurs of his time - the only problem was that the old man had no time, no friends, and died early.

Over a series of memorable evenings the professor shares with Jack seven laws to turn his life around. Don't settle for being money rich - time poor Believe that the job you do makes a difference Play to your strengths Believe in the power of dreams Put your family before your career Keep the common touch Don't settle for success; strive for significance
