Publisher's summary

When she refused to take a pay cut, Marie Cosgrove was cut loose. So she started her own business...and a few years later, she bought the company that had fired her.

She didn't give up - she became greater. And you can, too.

Whether it's everyday problems or seemingly insurmountable challenges, we all face hardships in our personal and professional lives. In Greater Fortune, business mastermind and motivational speaker Marie Cosgrove guides you in discovering how to use these hardships to propel you forward.

Born into poverty, Cosgrove persevered through a tumultuous upbringing and an abusive marriage; throughout it all, she raised four children on her own while struggling to make her way in the business world. Not only did she survive, she turned the lessons of adversity into advantage, becoming a multi-millionaire entrepreneur and innovator in the competitive field of medical devices. Now, she shares what she has learned - from both her successes and failures - with you.

Greater Fortune is both an inspirational story and a road map to a better life of your own, filled with practical strategies that will help you make the most of the greatness that is within you already.

A MUST READ especially if you feel lost and stuck

I highly recommend this book. The author proves you can be in the worse of situations and bring yourself out of problems life throws at you and achieve unbelievable results. This book should be read by every young person. Especially those that feel they are not good enough or smart enough to make it. I will be giving copies to my kids and grandkids. I hope this book will inspire them, that no matter the problem, with determination and persistence they can overcome most anything.

Must read book by every one in business

This is one of the best books I’ve listened to in personal development. It’s not only educational but entertaining, captivating and engaging. Listened to all of it in one day, which is unusual for me—it usually takes me a week or two to get through an audible book. It was so good, I got a hard copy to go over the lessons with my sales staff.
