This book shows how to see the bright side of life and how to be mentally and emotionally strong. With his diagnosis he never felt sorry for himself; he only worried about how the lives’ of his young children, wife and many friends would be after he died. He never asked for pity, but instead asked for ways to help others and make his children remember him. Even though he might come off as arrogant at some points of the book I truly believe that he tried his best not to be. He is not trying to brag when he says he helped some people reach their dreams because people helped him reach his dreams. If he truly was arrogant he would state that he never took help but only gave. He realizes that sometimes people need help to reach their dreams. He knows the values of having giant dreams. I find it amazing that even with everything that has happened he finds the good in everything. He sees the hard work of his students and tries to make them even better. He knows there is good in every situation and person. The most motivation part of this book for me is his philosophy on “Brick Walls” or things that prevent us from getting what we want or dream to have. He explains that in any situation if you go at something with enough tenacity you can succeed in getting over and around the wall. However, never be afraid to ask for help to get around the brick walls of your life. This book is successful in touching the hearts of many and showing that life is good. This book can help you look at your self differently, making you realize how good life actually is. In the end, I would recommend this book to anyone and really hope that Randy’s message reaches all, especially his children.
