Very inspirational story about an ordinary man.

I learned about an ordinary man who accomplished extraordinary things in his journey. This man's story reinforced my values and beliefs which enriched my views of success. I really enjoyed all the personal stories from people whom he had personal and business and social contact with. What an amazing man!

Great book!

life changing

Didn't want it to end , loved every story. Thank you for writing it. every enjoyable.

Great book about a great man

This is a great book about a great man with wonderful insight into his character and generosity. it is a must read for anyone who would like to evaluate what kind of impact they would like to have on those around them in the world

Well worth it!

I found these stories to be inspiring and uplifting. I have loved to have learned about the role God has played in Larry's life. These personal stories have caused me to look at Utah and all of Larry's endeavors in a new light. It is cool to have learned the background to the Utah Jazz basketball team, Larry's auto dealerships, his race track, and his movie theaters. I definitely recommend this book.

It was better to burn out rather than rust away.

Every short story in this book was exciting and captivating. From a parts counter clerk to entrepreneurship of a Billionaire in half a lifetime. The amazing legacy he leaves behind leaves a high mark for others aim at and exceed.

The most important part of this book isn't however in what he achieved, but what he gave, not only in millions to worthy causes, but his hands on participation in donating his personal time to lift others lives to aim beyond their imagination. Keep in mind, Larry H. Miller's time was worth thousands of dollars per hour and he often gave it as freely as a local food bank might give out food.

An important part missing in the book, however. The stories of when he failed and the wisdom he gained from failing. The book did cover one small lesson that did cost him $19 million, but did omit the wisdom he gained from this and other challenges. At 400 pages, it is captivating to imagine how one man could accomplish so much in so little time. It would have been difficult to have written a better book without increasing the size of the book to the point of making it unmarketable.

I am a better person for having read this story of Larry H. Miller's life. You can only understand the value of Larry's life when you read this book.

Great book , great stories , up lifting.

Its truly an inspiring story , it moved me as much it made me realize the importance of sharing .
