The Fifteen Percent: Overcoming Hardships and Achieving Lasting Success

One of today's most successful entrepreneurs shares his story "of inspiration and information [that] will inspire you to push yourself to the next level" (Stedman Graham, businessman, speaker, and author of Identity Leadership).

Terry Giles, "the man behind the scenes who litigated—and sometimes mitigated—some of the most sensationally nasty celebrity and political dramas of the last several decades" (The Texas Tribune), attributes his own success to being part of "the fifteen percent" of people who are able to rise above despair and succeed against all odds. Using examples from his career and life—defending child sex abuse victims, his involvement in Monica Lewinsky's trial, and even managing Dr. Ben Carson's 2016 presidential campaign—he illustrates these ideas in action. In each chapter, you'll learn valuable skills, including fearlessness, embracing underdog status, visualizing the future, and positive thinking—and proving that you do not have to be a victim of bad circumstances to adopt the superpowers of "the fifteen percent."

Entertaining, inspiring, and full of useful insights, The Fifteen Percent will help you overcome whatever's holding you back, so you can achieve lasting success.
