Zusatztext "The brisk! passionate and no nonsense style makes them [Trump's books] inspiring and motivating to read." (businessopportunitiesandideas.co.uk! Tuesday 26th February 2008) Informationen zum Autor Donald J. Trump is the world's most famous businessman, a bestselling author and media personality, and a symbol of success for people around the world. He is also the founder of Trump University (www.TrumpUniversity.com), which teaches success principles and financial independence to ambitious people who don't have time to sit in a classroom. Klappentext Inspiring words from Never Give Up! "I believe the so-called 'impossible' is actually very often possible, if you're willing to work very hard, and if you realize that problems can become opportunities." "When I hear the word 'no' it becomes a challenge to me." "It's been said that what makes me accessible to people?aside from The Apprentice showing how I operate in the business world?is that I've faced tremendous adversity. It's something everyone can relate to. The difference may be in the amount of zeros after the numbers, but the point is, people can relate to difficulties. For example, I had such an amazing reversal of fortune in the early 1990s that I am listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for the biggest financial turnaround in history. I don't recommend anyone aim for the same goal, but when you've been on the financial high wire, it gives you a certain perspective that might be helpful to other people. As one writer described the journey of life, No one gets out of this alive. That's a bit existential but when you're down a few billion dollars in the red, it can make you think in new dimensions . . . " Zusammenfassung In Never Give Up, Donald Trump tells the dramatic stories of his biggest challenges, lowest moments, and worst mistakes--and how he uses tenacity and creativity to turn defeat into victory. Each chapter includes an inspiring story from Trump's career and concludes with expert commentary and coaching from adversity researcher and author Paul Stoltz.
