This review is from: Duxter's Leap : The Pursuit of Possibility (Mass Market Paperback)

I happened to find this book doing an Amazon.com search on my own name, Duxter. It was perfect timing for me, as I was preparing for a one month adventure vacation through Asia.

I read the book cover to cover (twice) on a beautiful island in the Gulf of Thailand, Ko Samat. With no distractions, I was able to use the analogies and examples from this book to apply to my own life.

Immediately upon my return to life in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, I implemented the improvements and changes that came so clearly to me on the beach of that beautiful island.

I even went so far as to contact the author, based out of London, Ontario, Canada. Mostly to figure out how he came to use MY NAME for this book!!! I learned that the personalized license plate "DUXTER" is taken too ;). I understand that future printings of this book will be titled "The Leap", as customers weren't sure what a "Duxter" is.

An easy read, and will help you to take a look at your life decisions.

Sincerely,
Rob Duxter ...
