- Summary:
- Many people wake up one day and realize they've been sitting back and watching the world go by. They had assumed that certain people were supposed to jump into the fray and compete while others sat in the bleachers and cheered them on. Then they realize that spectators cannot influence the outcome, so they suit up and play the game of life. What did it take? A simple shift in attitude. And what happens? They move from being powerless spectators to being powerful participants.
- Author Patricia Russell-McCloud's message of personal empowerment and professional accountability shows you how to have the courage to face all that life has to offer--the disappointments and the pleasures. Russell-McCloud shows you how to stop making the excuses that hinder you from venturing beyond where you are.
