Description
In life, we tend to underestimate our ability to influence others. Those of us who come from very humble beginnings also tend to devalue what we have to offer. This happens because we internally compare our situation and feelings to others’ external projections. Written in an engaging and relatable way, “The Apple Doesn’t Fall Far.” is a must-read for anyone looking to unlock their full potential. The book will leave you with a stronger desire to live and lead your life intentionally because what we do matters more than you may ever know, especially in the moment. As you read, I hope these stories will trigger your thoughts and stories that you can lean into in whatever walk of life you are currently journeying.
This memoir shares the life lessons I learned from my father and how they’ve made me the dynamic leader I am today. The book is packed with valuable insights on courage, integrity, and perseverance, all presented through heartfelt stories and real-life examples. Whether you are a parent, uncle, or aunt, or work with children, the apple really doesn’t fall far from the tree.
Advance Praise
"I listened in awe to author James Pierce share the influential lessons he learned from his father that helped develop his strong character as a family man, friend, professional and leader. This book is filled with character building gems for all ages, stages of life and both interpersonal and professional relationships. Just a few of the lessons that really struck me are ""you only fear what you do not understand"" and ""understanding why is more important than understanding how"". Even as an older adult, I feel I am a work in progress and this book has been so impactful. If you are a lifelong learner this book is for you! You will want to share it with those in your life you care about.
What heartfelt and thoughtful read!
I thoroughly enjoyed reading each chapter. The book is packed with distinct nuggets of leadership, and general life lessons, given by a father to his son. I could feel just how the teachings are still prevalent today, and how they ring true for any leader.
I have already recommended to a friend and would recommend it to anyone who wants to improve in their leadership journey."
So many great lessons. Many simple one liner truths to live by; with complex applications. Love the story about your parents humbly sharing your business cards. Thanks for sharing your stories. - Robert Stewart.
