The Seven Decisions: Understanding the Keys to Personal Success

Andy Andrews revisits the seven decisions he first presented in an earlier book, The Traveler's Gift, in this updated edition. Drawing on his study of biographies and on time spent with highly successful people, he argues that a small set of principles can change the course of a life, even one that feels hopeless. The decisions cover how a person takes responsibility, seeks guidance, acts, approaches certainty, finds joy, shows compassion, and keeps going. Andrews presents them as practical tools for parenting, relationships, money, and leadership. He suggests that consistent use of these principles can turn impossible goals into real results and make life feel like an adventure.
