Below is a video and powerful message from Andy Andrews the author of The Traveler’s Gift: Seven Decisions That Determine Personal Success

This past week I reread a book on by bookshelf called The Traveler’s Gift: Seven Decisions That Determine Personal Success by Andy Andrews that I read about 7 years ago for the second time. I forgot what a great book it was and am glad I read it again. Wow what a powerful book!

The book The Traveler’s Gift is about a successful businessman named David Ponder who loses his job, his savings, his self-respect and his hope.  He feels as though he has failed in life and has let his wife and daughter down. Through a dream he jumps back and forth through time to receive wisdom and advice from some of the greatest achievers.

The book goes into 7 principles of wisdom that turn David Ponder’s life around from not wanting to live to be fulfilled, grateful and excited about life.

If you have not read the book I highly recommend the read.

The 7 actual principles/decisions covered in the book are:

  1. The buck stops here. I am responsible for my past and my future.
  2. I will seek wisdom. I will be a servant to others.
  3. I am a person of action. I seize this moment. I choose now.
  4. I have a decided heart. My destiny is assured.
  5. Today I will choose to be happy. I am the possessor of a grateful spirit.
  6. I will greet this day with a forgiving spirit. I will forgive myself.
  7. I will persist without exception. I am a person of great faith.
