Researchers estimate that the average person will influence up to eighty thousand people over the course of their lifetime—or 2.8 people daily. That’s a stadium full of people whom each of us affects in ways positive or negative, sometimes without us realizing. What if we paid attention to this fact? Would we live differently? Would we lead differently? Would we put down our phones and be more present with the people in front of us?

Practical take-aways

By: Tommy Spaulding
Publisher's summary
Mike Johnson was a self-made man. He had worked his way up from the bottom to build a company he could be proud of. Winning was the name of the game, and Mike was good at it. A fierce competitor and hard-working businessman, he had high hopes and big dreams, and then...tragedy struck. He lost everything that was important to him: his family, his health, his business. What s next? His own life?
Franklin Robinson was an 83-year-old parts deliveryman in coveralls and an old straw hat. Driving an old 52 Ford pickup, his dog Socrates by his side, Franklin teaches Mike the true meaning of business and life. He explains, I'm just a parts driver. I deliver what people need when they need it, whether they realize it or not. Sometimes I deliver things people don t order and provide them with what they don t expect. I try to make a difference in people s lives.
Along the way Mike learns how attract, retain, and build the greatest asset in business - people!
A Simple Choice is a tale of grief, redemption, and hope, in which one man learns what really matters in life and business. From the most unlikely source, he learns the meaning of servant leadership.

To effect true transformational change, heart-led leaders draw on the qualities of humility, vulnerability, transparency, empathy, and love.

Most of us think of sales as convincing potential customers to believe or do something they don't really want to. But that cutthroat mentality makes the process much harder than it has to be—especially in an economic downturn, when customers are more suspicious and defensive. It's far more productive (and satisfying) when salespeople think like Go-Givers and focus exclusively on creating value for the customer.

In addition to his work as an entrepreneur, corporate executive, and consultant, for the last 16 years August Turak worked alongside the Trappist monks of Mepkin Abbey, watching firsthand as they undertook new enterprises and sustained an incredibly successful business practice. Service and selflessness are at the heart of this 1,500-year-old monastic tradition’s remarkable business success, an ancient though immensely relevant economic model that preserves what is positive and productive about capitalism while transcending its ethical limitations and internal contradictions.

When Kevin West resigned from his job as vice president of a bank in 1998 after making fraudulent loans, he spent the time before his trial managing a family-owned, small grocery store in Ironton, Ohio. Dealing with serious marriage problems and with a prison sentence almost certainly in his future, Kevin was overcome with remorse and without a scrap of hope. It was at his lowest moment that Kevin called out to a power beyond himself for help, and God answered his prayer in the form of an elderly vagrant named Don.

What if you were only known for the worst thing you've ever done? Not only does the US have the highest rate of incarceration in the world, it also makes certain that the stigma of a felony conviction follows people who have already served their time.

Simple but not easy
Would you consider the audio edition of A Simple Choice to be better than the print version?
Yes. Mark has a great speaking voice and is well suited for this (his) book.
What was one of the most memorable moments of A Simple Choice?
The ideas presented are basic but many of us never take time to read/listen and then take action. This will help you take action.
Which character – as performed by Mark Matteson – was your favorite?
Franklin
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Life isn't fair but you have a simple choice.
Any additional comments?
Mark's books are easy to read and listen to. The principals are basic but we many times forget them and rarely bring them to action. His books will change your life if you let them.
