Richard Branson stated: "No goal is beyond our reach and even the impossible can become possible for those with vision and belief in themselves." This is the topic of this book, which studies the lives of 50 extraordinarily successful women and men - most of them entrepreneurs, but also top managers, athletes, entertainers and others - to find out what distinguishes them and the lessons that we can all learn.What really sets these highly successful and rich individuals apart is their courage to be different from the majority of those around them. They challenge traditional ways of thinking and they set their goals and ambitions considerably higher than most people. Their stories serve as powerful guidelines for anyone who wants to aim higher and achieve much more than those around you.
