Why you should listen
to him:
Richard St. John was on his way to the TED conference when a
girl on the plane asked him, "What really leads to success?" Even though
he had achieved some success, he couldn't explain how he did it. So he
spent the next ten years
researching success and asking
over 500 extraordinarily successful people in many fields what helped
them succeed. After analyzing, sorting, and correlating millions of
words of research, and building one of the most organized databases on
the subject of success, he discovered
The 8 Traits Successful People Have in Common and wrote the bestseller
8 To Be Great.
In his books and talks,
he shares a wealth of wisdom from the world's most successful people
-- knowledge that can help others succeed in their own way, whether
it's escaping poverty, building a business, raising a family, or
changing the world.
"It's so great. It's such a
boost of confidence. This book really gives you a lot of self-esteem
about who you are, and that you really can be somebody."
