The Power of Doing the Right Thing

About the Book

THE POWER OF DOING THE RIGHT THING

This book is about success.

How the authors James and Terence Elsberry define success is based on the people they knew growing up in small-town America. People who built uncommonly successful lives through the power of doing the right thing and all the values that phrase stood for; old-fashioned concepts such as integrity and perseverance, humility and optimism, faith and hard work.

This book isn’t about being perfect. It’s about how you can survive the misfortunes and tragedies of life without losing your spirit. It’s about keeping hope alive. It’s about becoming the person your family, friends and co-workers want and need you to be. It’s about you enjoying the power and rewards of a values-driven life.
