The common ordinary person with a big dream needs encouragement as well as ideas. With quotes from successful entrepreneurs and thinkers, each chapter starts with accelerators - a boost to get you moving.

This book is chock-full of role models, how-to, and tips on moving forward from dreams or ideas to action. I highly recommend it, especially if you need something to read on a "down" day when your plans aren't working out the way you'd hoped.
