Everyone cheats. Cuts corners. Tells lies. Maybe it was different once. Not anymore. If you want to succeed nowadays, you have to make compromises. Right? Wrong. You can succeed at the highest levels, without sacrificing the principles that make life worth living.

Historia
Her agent told her not to get on the plane. The male leads weren't even cast. The financing was shaky at best. The script had been rewritten countless times. And yet something about Wild Oats lured Shirley MacLaine to the film's location shoot in the far-off Canary Islands - and straight to the center of one of the most thrilling and paradigm-shifting adventures of her life.

Imagine you are a genie, and everything you wish begins to form up right in front of you. First is the thought and thought creates form. The author's experiences and the stories in this audiobook describe exactly how your thoughts take form. You've been doing this all your life, but it probably has never been fully explained until now.
