He begain to ask himself, "Is life just a lottery ticket, or are there choices one can make to direct his future?" Over time, he read more than two hundred biographies of great men and women.

This book was just full of wisdom and advice for practical life. It may have been a bit much in one area and lacking the next section, but it eventually balanced out in the end.
It took me a bit to get into due to the writing style. I seldom come across the style that Andrews used but once I got used to it, I didn't notice. Granted, it did take awhile to get used to it.
I'd recommend this book to fans of authors like Richard Paul Evans and David Rawlings.
