Creating Success from the Inside Out Hardcover - 2007

From the rear cover

Creating Success from the Inside Out shares the truly inspiring story of Ephren Taylor, one of the world's youngest-ever CEOs of a publicly traded company. At twenty-five, he has been a preacher, entrepreneur, business owner, and chairman and CEO. He launched his first business at twelve and was a millionaire at sixteen.

It would be natural to assume that success at such a young age must be due to some special training or understanding. It's not. Taylor's success didn't come from formal education, but from solid values, principles, and the drive and desire to reach his goals. In Creating Success from the Inside Out, Taylor shares these concepts along with the necessary tools and inspiration to help you realize your own dreams.

Life offers a million excuses to give up and quit. Plenty of voices tell us we can't do it--that we aren't smart enough, fast enough, rich enough, or good-looking enough. Do you listen? Or do you turn away from those negative voices and follow your own passions and goals? You have the power to overcome them and succeed if you ...

• Accept NO excuses and let nothing stand in the way of your dreams
• Get over your fears and self-doubt and choose success
• Develop the decisiveness and determination to achieve your goals
• Just say no to conventional wisdom! It's usually wrong
• Start a business as a tool to reach your dreams
• Find motivation in something other than money
• Achieve true and complete wealth by giving back to your community

If Ephren's fascinating and inspiring story teaches us anything, it's that we must ignore the stereotypes and expectations society thrusts upon us. Follow your own path and determine your own definition of success. The only real obstacles are the ones we create. Why not tear yours down? Start today--and create your own success from the inside out.
