Taking the Leap for What Really Matters

Nigel Ben­nett — a client of mine who has become a great friend – has final­ly released Take That Leap: Risk­ing It All for What Real­ly Mat­ters, a book about the amaz­ing adven­tures of his life, as an entre­pre­neur and extreme out­door adventurer.

Nigel is one of the few entre­pre­neurs I know who has attained the ulti­mate in achieve­ment and enjoy­ment (in fact, I fea­tured him in the first chap­ter of my book Your Oxy­gen Mask First). And he fought hard, step by step, to cre­ate a spec­tac­u­lar life of free­dom that most peo­ple only dream about.

When I first met Nigel, he was being pum­melled by life, despite a boom­ing busi­ness. He was the prime exam­ple of some­one who didn’t sup­ply his oxy­gen mask first – and was pay­ing a high price for it.

It quick­ly became clear that he need­ed a dif­fer­ent mind­set – and dif­fer­ent tools to han­dle the inten­si­ty of life as a CEO.

Today, he lives every busi­ness owner’s fan­ta­sy, with lots of free time to spend on per­son­al pas­sions — build­ing homes for peo­ple in need, trav­el­ling with his fam­i­ly, and cre­at­ing great expe­ri­ences every­where he goes.

Read this book about tak­ing the leap – it’s an amaz­ing, and inspir­ing read.
