This is an easy read in that Mitch’s story-telling draws you in so that you don’t want to put the book down. His twelve principles are straight-forward and practical – I’ve posted them in a couple of places for ongoing motivation! Thank you Mitch for reminding me that I can do anything I put my mind to. I’m ready to read your story again.”
