Unsucceeding: Waking Up From My American Dream

by Kyle Drake, Steve Brown (Foreword)

Kyle Drake was a successful man, a VP of one of the nation's largest banks. But he chose to leave his career, sell his opulent home, and move his family to begin a new life. Born out of the countless questions from those who couldn't fathom his decision, this book shows what he discovered—that despite our success, something most of us have forgotten causes us to fall short of a truly successful life. Walk a mile in the shoes of a man who opened his eyes to more, and made the leap to “Unsucceeding”. “Late at night, an old man knows that sometimes he, as Mark Twain put it, ‘paidtoo much for his whistle.’... This is a fun book but it’s not comfortable. Like Jesus,it’s counterintuitive. It will keep you up at night considering how much you’ve paidfor your whistle. But like Jesus, there isn’t condemnation here, or self righteousness or manipulation. It is one man’s honest and halting witness to the power of truth… a larger truth. Unsucceeding is one of those books that can change your life.”—Steve Brown,Radio Host and author of A Scandalous Freedom and Three Free Sins“Unsucceeding” is a revolutionary message of forgoing the quest for monetary success in this lifetime for what is truly valuable. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. Kyle Drake has wrapped his emotional arms around the dollar-based insanity of this day, and offered a faith-based alternative to the corporate madness that surrounds all of us. I highly recommend this book. Kyle refuses to compromise on what the Bible says - He’s found a more fulfilling “American Dream” in Unsucceeding. __Dr. Clinton R.
