The power of words
Whoever first uttered the famous idiom ‘Sticks and stones may break
my bones but words will never hurt me’ had likely never received
a harsh review or had someone close to them say something overtly
critical or outright mean. Words, whether written or spoken, can be
immeasurably powerful, and it is this thought that guides Kenny Rich’s
latest book.
With clever wordplay and creative flair, Rich brings to life
an inspirational and entertaining mental, emotional, and spiritual
adventure. Using a combination of poetry, prose, and short stories,
he takes readers on an exploration of diverse topics, experiences,
sentiments, challenges, and concerns that will have a particular
resonance with members of the Y generation.
The overriding purpose of his book is to help readers enrich their
lives, and he makes a powerful argument that words have a genuine
capacity not only to inspire, but also to compel you to action.

The secrets to success
Think and Grow Rich: The Legacy is the modern day companion to
Napoleon Hill’s 1937 classic self-help book Think and Grow Rich. It is
fully endorsed by the Napoleon Hill Foundation and has been released
in conjunction with a major motion picture.
Readers will be inspired by the unflinching accounts of some of
today’s most successful entrepreneurs, thought leaders, and cultural
icons who rose above the unlikeliest, and in some cases most tragic of
circumstances, to find personal fulfillment and make their mark on
the world. The wide-ranging case studies include former professional
athlete and media mogul Rob Dyrdek, venture capitalist and television
personality Barbara Corcoran, self-help guru and international speaker
Bob Proctor, and property mogul and bestselling author Grant Cardone.
The 25 against-the-odds stories chosen by author James Whittaker act as
illustrative examples that potential is not predicated on age, race, finances,
education, or any other perceived misfortune. It is in fact the consistent
application of a proven formula that turns simple thoughts into meaningful
action, elevating ordinary people to extraordinary success in the process.
