Ruben wasn't a gifted athlete. He didn't take up the Olympic sport of luge until he was 21. Against all odds, four years and a few broken bones later he was competing in the Calgary Winter Olympics. At the age of 47 he was racing against 20-year-olds at the Vancouver Olympics. If these principles worked for Ruben, they will work for anyone, anywhere, anytime.

A seemingly “ordinary guy,” Ruben wasn’t a gifted athlete. He didn’t take up the sport of luge until he was 21. Against all odds, four years and a few broken bones later, he was competing in the Calgary Winter Olympics. At the age of 47, at the Vancouver Olympics he became the first person to ever compete in four Winter Olympics in four
different decades.

Ruben’s appeared nationally on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and FOX. He’s been featured in Time Magazine, Success Magazine, The New York Times, as well as publications all over the world.

Ruben’s the author of the critically acclaimed book, "The Courage to Succeed" and "The Shortcut." He’s spoken for over 100 Fortune 500 companies and his books have sold over 300,000 copies worldwide.

Ruben lives in Colorado. He enjoys the challenge of climbing Colorado’s fourteen-thousand-foot peaks,
sailing and flying.

I thought this was a very good book explaining how one person went through adversity and overcame it. Ruben tells his story and gives an account of how he overcame his own struggles. Then he gives others suggestions on how to move forward while holding them accountable.

A phenomenal book. Could've read in a day. This book has the condensed wisdom of numerous well-known successful authors and entrepreneurs. Ruben sets a great example and empowers us with his life's examples.
To get an idea, just read what other successful people from diverse fields had to say about Ruben and this book!

I commit to doing Ruben's exercises and affirmations. I just know I can only get better. It's the focus and courage I'd been lacking.
