I just recently became acquainted to the author, Andy Andrews, because the titles of his book's intrigued me.
So I went to the library and checked out the three different one which they carried by him.
The first book of his that I read was entitled, The Traveler's Gift.
I usually do not read fiction, but Andy Andrews has definitely broken that ban. I may just have to consider reading more Christian allegorical stories such as this.
Mr. Andrews takes historical figures and facts and weaves them into one journey of healing for the main character and the reader too.
He skillfully uses a parallel story line to empower and motivate the reader. Mr. Andrews delivers seven key decisions which we can choose to make that will determine our personal success in life.
Although this book is in the fiction section, it could not be truer to the message that most believer's need to hear in this hour and times we are living in.
Your life has a purpose. This book gives you a front seat to what potentially could happen if you decide to give up on your dream.
I definitely wouldn't spoil the book by sharing all seven decisions here, but I would like to leave you with a few quotes that impacted me for the better.
You may even take a few of these quotes which inspire you, and put them a post-it or a index card to keep it before you.
Mr. Andy Andrews is truly a dynamic storyteller and inspiring gift to his readers/audience. So glad I have discovered who he is.

This book is a "must-have" in your personal development library. After reading it the first time, I'm ready to read it again with a mastermind group. I particularly enjoyed the way in which Andy Andrews weaves historical figures who personify each characteristic, then gives practical applications. A truly gifted writer and communicator!

Review 10 for The Traveler's Gift: Seven Decisions that Determine Personal Success - eBook
This book is unlike any other book I've ever read. I enjoy Andrews style, and I appreciate his keys to success. I do wish that he would have given God/Jesus more credit for the success. Other than that, I thought it was very interesting to look at decisions from a historical standpoint.

Review 11 for The Traveler's Gift: Seven Decisions that Determine Personal Success - eBook
Andy Andrews writes a good story of encouragement about a man on the track to financial, and personal disaster. He then takes his story imaginitively to different places in time to give the main character the secrets to success. I thought this book was well-written, imaginitive, and very interesting, giving a tinge of suspense to the reader. However, it does display a lack of understanding in a controversial subject (the Civil War). Mr. Andrews doesn't display the truth of the matter, as to why the Civil War was fought in the first place, and makes one side of the American conflict out to be savages. Again he goes awry by not including God in the equation of success. God is the center of true success. I believe it should be eight steps to personal success, the first one being trusting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

This is one of the most riviting books I have read, and it provides some interesting positive points to living and how to unleash attributes we all possess for a better tomorrow. Easy reading....hard to put down. Even better than another one of his books, The Noticer.

This book is amazing! It is the kind of book that once you start reading it you do not want to put it down. Through the fictional circumstances that the author leads us through you gain real insight into what life actually is about. If you have ever felt like you were at the "end of your rope" this book will inspire you to hang on and give you information that will help you to look at things through another perspective...a life changing perspective. I highly recommend this book and will read it again myself!
