The Think Big Manifesto
Think you can't change your life (and the world)? Think again.
 by Michael Port with Mina Samuels
Highlight-ables...
"To think big is to know what we stand for and let it guide us in everything we do; to maintain our integrity in the face of a world filled with slack thinking, lazy habits, and flexible principles; to imagine the possibilities of the world and go out and do them."
 
"Know this - nothing great, nothing transformative, nothing that ever shaped the common good and inspired others has ever happened except by thinking big."
 
"What you stand for shapes how you live your life, how you treat others, how you run your business or career. It seeps into everything you do until it is seamless."
 
 "Sometimes it doesn't even matter why we are the way we are. Knowing may not help us change, anyway. How am I being in the world? That's the question that can change our behavior."

Author's Angle 
 
A powerful message at a critical time in our evolution, this book challenges us to step away from small thinking and opt instead for thinking big.
 
Port and Samuels present a compelling case for beginning our own Think Big Revolution or joining forces with those already underway. 
 
This is an inspiring read for anyone poised for personal or professional transformation.
A Question of Perspective 
 
 What 'small' thoughts have been holding you back from reaching your highest potential?
 
The View from Here
 
With so much uncertainty in the world it can be pretty tempting to pull the covers over our heads and wait for the clouds to pass.
 
And yet, there are those among us who continue to move forward, remain optimistic and do great things in spite of the obstacles.
 
What keeps them going? The knowledge that they have the power to shape the future and the tenacity to take action. How about you?

It all starts with a conversation...
