Overview

Look up from the daily struggle of life to the triumph and personal fulfillment that comes only from living life to the MAX! Some writers are more credible than others because of what they have lived through and triumphed over. Max Cleland survived the loss of both legs and an arm in Vietnam to become a Georgia state senator, state Secretary of State, and in 1997, a U.S. Senator. In Going for the Max!, Senator Cleland talks about what he learned on the long road back to self-esteem, fulfillment, and success from a life of brokenness, pain, and despair. The principles are simple, the writing as straightforward and direct as its author.

    Going for the Max ....... ' The tour guide for for life !'

    From the very start of the book my attention was attracted as that of a magnet to steel. As a reader, I could not help but being captivated by the trials & testimonies within this powerful book. The positive quotes are from extraordinary people who capture the tools for life in very short words. When researching leaders, one may become aware of similarities & outlooks. This book gave examples of failures turned inside out to successes. It reflects the power of the human spirit in the darkest hours of every day life. The author exemplifies the drive & gives the reader the keys in which to apply the text. Max Cleland listed 12 basic ways to live life to the Max. At the end of the book I was disappointed because my hand was searching for 13,14,15 etc. Basically, I did not want to place the book down! While I have not had the pleasure to apply the lessons taught to me, the inspiration is planted within me & shall remain. This book really can shape a persons life if given the chance. Any person who is searching for a mentor will seek no more after picking this book up. Max Cleland¿s works alone are a tribute to the awesome power of ¿ human will¿ when the ¿ body won¿t¿ !!!! There are many authors who tell a person how to make money & how to survive in given conditions..... Max Cleland¿s book will show you how to look inside & tap into that spirit which allows a person to live in any condition!! If you are looking for a map in life ... ¿ Max is the tour guide¿ ...... and if you get lost the directions are on your book shelf. 50 stars for Max Cleland and then some!
