Description

In this remarkably forthcoming book you will come to believe that risk is a road worth traveling. That's where the rewards are. Why not take it! The future, as seen through the eyes of businessman, entrepreneur, and author Craig Huntington, is unlimited. The choices we make will dictate the direction of our lives, both personal and professional. That's an empowering thought. Are there risks involved with making choices? Of course there are. But even choosing to do nothing comes with risks. You may want to reinvent the wheel by changing careers, or you may simply want to nudge your life in a different direction. Taking action carries with it an inherent element of risk. Failure is just a bump in the road that we call "risk taking." If you're willing to make something extraordinary of your life, there is no better place to start than with the timeless lessons contained within these pages.
