Book description
Never Too Late to be Great is about the power of thinking long.
Exposing the myth of 'overnight' success, author and motivational
speaker Tom Butler-Bowdon shows us that contrary to popular belief,
people, companies, products and ideas invariably need a long time to
realise their potential.
Highlighting the importance of the 'ten-year rule' as referred to in
Malcolm Gladwell's Outliers, which suggests that significant
achievements rarely happen without a decade of intense work and
practice in any given area, Never Too Late to be Great offers
inspiration for the impatient or disheartened to stay the
course, and gives reassurance to us all that we have more time than we
think to achieve our goals.
