About From Tragedy
Did you know that Barack Obama was suffered a crushing defeat in a congressional primary just 8 years before being elected president? Or that Albert Einstein couldn’t find a teaching job? Or that Tina Turner thought she could never be successful without her abusive husband? Or that billionaire Ross Perot got this start by borrowing $1,000 from his wife? These are just a few of the examples of the many humble beginnings that eventually led to stunning success. The 100 profiles are each divided into 3 sections; At the bottom, At the Top, and The Comeback, describing how they found their way from tragedy to triumph. The conclusion features an insightful analysis of the ways that you can apply the lessons from the book to your own life. What do these comebacks prove? That no matter what your problem or background, where you’re from or the mistakes you’ve made, it’s possible to stage a comeback, even when things seem hopeless. Half the battle is realizing that it can be done; the other half is the specific strategy you need to employ. By giving 100 very diverse examples of great comebacks, we prove that a comeback is always possible, and provide many specific examples how you can move from tragedy to triumph. |
