Book Description

April 26, 2010

Put your own fate exactly where it belongs-in your hands

It is one of the great questions of life. Its a simple question, really, but it seems impossible for many to answer: Do we control our own destinies? 90 percent of people think and act as if their destiny is foreordained, while only about 10 percent believe in the capacity to change and act on it.

Creating Your Own Destiny explains and demonstrates to the majority how to dream, plan, and execute a better future-despite the challenges of the economy and life circumstances.

  • Based on time-honored principles, theories, and case studies
  • Provides a Success Road Map for all those people who are seeking to achieve success but who aren't satisfied with their careers.
  • Written in an easy and accessible tone by Patrick Snow, who has been dubbed "the Dean of Destiny"

With the powerful and practical tools featured in this essential guide, you'll find yourself newly empowered and energized to achieve extraordinary results.

Patrick Snow is an incredible inspiration to so many. The "Dean of Destiny" certainly believes at a level most of us aspire to. This book sold so many copies as a self-published product that Wiley picked it up. His systematic approach is easily duplicable for your work positive lifestyle. Snow's frequent quotes raise the motivation factor of reading exponentially.

Amazing September 21, 2010
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Patrick is an amazing writer who has delivered a genuine book based on his experience of Creating Your Own Destiny. The book is packed with information, insights and stories that help the reader to connect to the topic. In addition, actual workbook exercises moves you beyond reading and contemplating into action. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has not yet realized their dream, wants more out of life or wants to create their own destiny.

I purchased five copies of this book and gave four away to friends and family. All of them read the book and called me to tell me how inspired they were by Patrick's book.
