It wasn’t a physical gift, so at the time, he didn’t realize what he’d been given. But looking back, it's clear just how special that gift truly was.
What made it so special?
For one, it changed his life. Not instantly…nearly 20 years passed before Kent could fully articulate what he had received. But make no mistake—this gift transformed him. It transformed how he sees life. It transformed how he thinks about life. It even transformed how he responds to life.
More than that, this gift gave him a clear picture of how the real world works best. It laid a solid foundation for lasting success. And it gave him the grit and determination to pursue his dreams. It’s safe to say that most people today long for these kinds of results in their lives.
That’s why Kent wrote this book. He wants to do for you what others once did for him—to pass along this one-of-a-kind gift.
But before you dive in, there’s one more thing you should Kent is just an ordinary guy. No royal pedigree. No superhuman talent. And that’s what makes this gift so powerful. As he likes to say, it’s the GREAT EQUALIZER, which is why it’s such a game-changer!
So go ahead and unwrap this gift. Just as it changed Kent’s life—and the lives of thousands in his audiences each year—it can change yours too.
Yet here’s the this gift might not feel entirely new. That’s because, deep down, each of us knows it’s a choice we can make (though many never do). But the more you embrace it, the more empowered you’ll feel to keep choosing it again and again.
And every time you do, it transforms you—from the inside out—for the better!
The concepts in this book are not new to me but I have never had it explained this way before. Kent writes in a manner that is very easy to understand and has some interesting stories throughout the book. I highly recommend this book to improve both your personal and professional life!
Wow! Great read!!! I've gleaned from Kent's life wisdom for quite a few years via his "Live it Forward" podcasts so the concept of E+R=O is one that I was introduced to years ago. I have quoted Kent and shared the principles from this book well before the book came out. HOWEVER, I loved reading this distillation of dozens or hundreds of podcasts, thoughts, and life lessons in a single, curated and polished format. My expectations for the book were high as I've come to expect excellence from Kent and he exceeded my expectations here! AND despite my familiarity with E+R=O, I wasn't as familiar with the concept of "grit" and I really enjoyed diving into that via this book. I think this book is needed now more than ever as I think more people today live with the idea that "life is hopeless" and "there's nothing I can do" than ever before. That thinking is untrue and Kent helps dig out of that black hole with this book. FINALLY, don't skip the AFTERWARD. It could be the most important thing you read in this book or any book with regard to experiencing "life that is truly life"!
