About this ebook

Do you feel like your life is a series of shattered dreams? Have you bought into the lie that you'll never amount to anything? In Think Big, Dr. Ben Carson is here to tell you some good news: none of that is true.

By learning to think big, Ben rose from his humble beginnings to create a life full of amazing accomplishments and international renown. He climbed from the academic bottom of his fifth-grade class to become--at age thirty-three--head of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital.

He learned that he had potential, but more importantly, he learned how to unleash it--and you can too. If you put the principles in this book in motion, you can transform your life into one you'll love.

As Dr. Carson teaches you how to unlock your own potential, you'll also learn:

  • The importance of surrounding yourself with a supportive community
  • How to look for God's gifts in your daily life
  • The key to shifting your perspective and thinking big

Your life is big--far bigger than you've ever imagined. Inside these pages lie the keys to recognizing your full potential. If you're ready to build a life that is rewarding, significant, and abundantly fruitful, let Think Big be your guide.

This guy is a Grade-A idiot. He is an actual stupid person, and he possibly has a mental disorder. "I have had a gun held on me when I was in a Popeye's *ORGANIZATION.* Guy comes in, put the gun in my ribs. And I just said, 'I believe that you want the guy behind the counter.'" This is the same guy that said: "Not only would I probably not cooperate with him, I would not just stand there and let him shoot me, I would say, ‘Hey guys, everybody attack him. He may shoot me, but he can’t get us all."

Very boring reading. I was not familiar with Dr. Carson experiences or leadership abilities, so I did not find this book motivating at all. He did overcome some obstacles in his life, but they are portrayed as he always believed he was superior to others.. wouldn't recommend. .
