Stories Worth Hearing: Remarkable people, hard-won wisdom, and the good in every story (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798183821734)

What if every person you've ever overlooked was carrying a story that could change your life?

From #1 Amazon bestselling author Jonathan Quick comes Stories Worth Hearing - a collection of remarkable true journeys, and the hard-won wisdom inside each one.

Born from Jonathan's hit podcast, this book takes its most unforgettable episodes and reimagines each one as a chapter - keeping the heart of every story and mining it for the principles you can use.

A pastor who lost everything and found his way home. A teenager paralyzed from the neck down who taught his body to move again. A festival founder rebuilding in the open. A president who walked away from Wall Street to serve his island nation. You'll meet builders, fighters, dreamers, and comeback artists - each story mined for the single, durable principle you can put to work in your own life.

Inside, you'll hear from:

• Grant Cardone - handed $100 and a fake name in a town where nobody knew him, the sales titan and real estate investor built it into millions in under ninety days, living proof of his father's dying advice that a great salesman can go anywhere, in any economy.
• Billy McFarland - the entrepreneur who built his first company in middle school, climbed to the top fast, lost it all, and chose to start over from dead last in full public view; one of the most genuine comeback stories you'll ever read.
• Eric Greitens - a Navy SEAL and humanitarian who served from Bosnia to Iraq, then became a governor who drove to a prison himself to free a woman wrongly jailed for thirty-six years, and held to a single anchor when the world turned on him: what you know to be true.
• Oz Pearlman - the mentalist who told Joe Rogan his ATM PIN on the biggest podcast on earth, after a decade quietly "stacking the deck" and leaving a Wall Street career only once he'd built the runway to land.
• Christopher Ruddy - starting in 1998 with one man and an idea, he built Newsmax from an apartment into one of the nation's most-watched news brands, reinventing across web, print, cable, and streaming and refusing to sell out the mission for nearly thirty years.

...and many more entrepreneurs, leaders, and unforgettable originals.

This isn't a book about extraordinary people. It's a book about what ordinary people do when everything is on the line - and what their choices can teach you about building a business, a comeback, or a life worth living.

Whether you're chasing a dream, climbing out of a setback, or simply trying to live with more purpose, every chapter leaves you with one truth to carry. And beneath them all runs a single, radical idea:

There is good in every person, and a lesson in every story - including yours.

For readers of John C. Maxwell, Gary Vaynerchuk, and anyone who believes the best lessons come from real lives.

Turn the page. Go find the good.
