Brief Book Description
What is the cost of quitting on your dream? Is the world missing something because you haven’t seen your dream come to pass … yet? What do you do when everyone is telling you to give up (including yourself) but deep down inside, you know it is what you were born to do? How many times have you tried to ignore that still small voice, but it just won’t go away? Game On! will encourage you to keep going against all odds.
You will discover how to:
Expose “valid reasons” as excuses not to move forward
Set small attainable goals to help you reach your destination
Trust your gut in spite of opposition
Change your perspective
Overcome self-doubt
