THINK BIG AND KICK ASS IN BUSINESS AND LIFE

Familiar lessons from the king of bold are invigorating, relentless, convincing, and not for the faint of heart. Yet Trump seems to speak to everyone—from the already confident to those who need to add a bit of kick-ass to their repertoire. To succeed in business and not get crushed, he says, you have to be tough, competitive, ruthless, and, at times, vindictive. Trump’s advice is illustrated with entertaining stories, colorful language, and his over-the-top confidence. Alan Sklar's big voice and attitude are too big for this material. His emotionality sounds forced and at times out of sync with some of the complex sentences. He's trying to add power to words that already have enough energy to move mountains and wake the dead.
