What do you want out of your one and only life? This is not your typical self-help guide to success. Beyond simply writing an easy-to-read inspirational book on how to achieve success, author and entrepreneur Merlyn Vandervort knows that success is built on experience, which undoubtedly also includes setbacks and challenges outside your control.
Make it Happen! offers readers ten rules for achieving a successful life and business. Beginning with the book's title, the author points out that success begins with action: "If you want to be lucky in life; always be prepared, and recognize the opportunities when they are presented to you; and take advantage of them!"
Woven in among the ten practical rules for succeeding in life, the author provides stories from his personal experience, along with other entrepreneurs' experiences, to exemplify what not to do as well as what to do.
If you only take away one really good thought or idea from this book that improves your life or your business; it will surely be worth the read. If this book inspires you to set your life on course for the destiny of your choosing; it may well be the most important book you ever read.
Having lost tens of millions of dollars in Great Recession of 2008, Vandervort knows not only how to create that kind of success, but also how to get back up again when the world and economic adversity knocks you down.
