The Story of You and How to Create a New One by Steve Chandler. Okay, I’ll admit it: I’m a Steve Chandler junkie. Anything he writes, I devour. I may try to resist his writing, but it always pulls me in, and captures both my mind and heart. With my disclosure out of the way, let’s dive into this book and why it’s worth checking out.
Chandler is a master storyteller drawing from not only his life experiences in the book but also his observations about life and success from such notables as Elvis Presley, Van Gogh, to Mark Twain and the biblical character Lazarus. This should give you a clue that his range of knowledge and perspective is impressive.
