Awake at the Wheel is a book about ideas: what they are, where they come from, and what it takes to manifest them in a world not always ready for the new and the different. Simply put, it's a book about possibility, about the wellspring of creation, about the strange and fascinating process we all go through whenever we have an idea and try to do something about it. And while it's often said that "ideas are a dime a dozen," the fact is that your idea - the one you can't get out of your head - is priceless. That is, IF you make the kind of effort required to turn that top of the line idea into a bottom line reality. Maybe it's an idea for a new business. Maybe it's an idea for a new product...or invention...or a book you want to write...or a school you want to open...or a move you want to make. Maybe it's an idea for something that will change the world...or if not THE world, then YOUR world. Whatever it is, one thing is clear: it's time for you to take the next step. Now!

Recenzii
"Awake at the Wheel is a quick and enjoyable read. I found it so compelling that I read it in one sitting. Like the best-selling self-help book, Who Moved My Cheese, I think corporations that want their employees to be more innovative should buy bulk quantities of Awake at the Wheel and distribute it to them. I highly recommend this book!" -- Chuck Frey "Founder of www.InnovationTools.com"
