[.ca] The Traveler's Gift: Seven Decisions That Determine ... (ISBN 159415015X)

An Imaginative Inspiration:
This little book is brilliant, not only in its message but also in how it is presented. Andy Andrews combines history with inspiration and succeeds! The story is fairly simple: a man, dissatisfied with his life, finds himself in an accident and unconscious. During this period of immobility the dissatisfied man meets several people from history who relate the laws of success in various forms. The first rule of success is "The Buck Stops Here" (Harry Truman), second "I Will Seek Wisdom" (King Solomon), third "I Am A Person of Action" (Colonel Chamberlain, Civil War Hero), fourth "I Have A Decided Heart" (Christopher Columbus), Fifth "Today I Will Choose To Be Happy" (Anne Frank), sixth "I Will Greet This Day With A Forgiving Spirit" (Abraham Lincoln) and seventh "I Will Persist Without Exception" (Archangel Gabriel). The concept behind this book is unique and highly evolved. Andy Andrews has accomplished something here and after reading this book you may as well. Imagine the impact on one's life if we all had an opportunity to learn from the historical masters our life lessons. While such an experience will never happen in our actual lifetimes it is never too late to pick up a book and learn something new each and everyday. This is one of those books and it even includes a bibliography for further advice from those wise old owls not quite forgotten in the shuffle by a few who care.

Wonderful!:
Andy Andrews has a beautiful way of making one realize that we are responsible for the decisions we make. The simple yet exciting story telling method outlines how we can have success in what ever we do by simply being responsible for the decisions we make rather than laying excuse and blame on external sources. We have complete control over how and where we are going. SuccessByDesire.com

Great Motivational Book:
This was a great book to encourage people who are struggling with cicumstances in their life. I was just coming out of a life crisis when I read this book and it really opened my eyes to see life in a new form. It was encouraging to learn the seven steps and how to apply them to your life. The way the book was formatted was an easy read. Plus, once you start you hate to put the book down. I would recommend this book to anyone wanting to better themselves, their lives and the people around them.

Enlightening and helpful:
Interesting blend of fiction and self help! I came to the book looking for answers for my own life, and found several! The story helped make it all clear, and I was able to really learn! Another book that has helped in my search is "With Joseph in the University of Adversity: the Mizraim Principles". It is based on the story of Joseph, but as with the Traveler's Gift, decisions determine personal success. Thanks so much for an entertaining and enlightening book!

A fun read!:
Andy Andrews stopped by Ramstein AB November 2003 and put on a free show for the troops. What an inspiration he is! I had the pleasure to talk with him after the show, and have my book autographed. I like his style of teaching important life lessons in story telling format. I just recieved his new book in the mail "The Lost Journey", and cannot wait to read it!
