Live Life in Crescendo

Reviews

'There’s another habit of highly effective people: they envision the future in an upward trajectory. This wonderful last gift from Stephen Covey, made with his daughter Cynthia, will inspire you to dream bigger and bolder'  'Stephen Covey certainly lived his life in crescendo and he constantly inspired others to do the same. He helped change the trajectory of my football career, and my life, when by happenstance we sat next to one another on a plane. At the end of that short flight, I was inspired and rejuvenated. I had been in the presence of greatness as he masterfully shared principles in this book which revealed the tremendous opportunities before me. I love that his legacy continues to shine through this book and the lives of his family'  'The dictum that I promote is ‘Making money may be happiness but making other people happy is super happiness.’ Simply put, happiness comes from many sources, not just from financial success. It is when we share with and serve those in need that we experience our truest joy at a much deeper and fulfilling level. Live Life in Crescendo teaches us how to achieve a life of purpose, meaning and contribution, by giving much, with full purpose of heart, for the greater good. Thank you, Stephen and Cynthia, for living life in crescendo, and for this beautiful, inspiring, and important work' 

  'In Live Life in Crescendo, Stephen Covey’s final leadership book, completed by his daughter Cynthia, Covey proposes a paradigm shift around retirement, suggesting that although we may retire from a job or career, we don’t ever have to retire from making meaningful contributions to those around us. With new insights and inspiring personal stories, the book helps us focus on leading a life of service with the same passion we brought to building successful careers' 

  'Retiring is not an end, but truly a beginning. We have more time to build even stronger relationships and to contribute and give back to our greater community. This inspiring, beautiful book provides us with examples, stories and the wisdom needed to create lasting legacies that will live on far beyond our years. Thank you, Stephen and Cynthia, for Live Life in Crescendo, this wonderful book, which is a tribute to your father and his legacy' 

  'I love Live Life in Crescendo. It will help all those looking to improve their lives and is filled with fun, wise and great stories. It was like having Dr. Covey with me once again. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People was important to me as a young physician, but I found his new book, written with his daughter Cynthia, even more important, guiding us, no matter what our age, to go further than we ever thought possible' 

  'Whether you've enjoyed success, encountered adversity, or feel stagnation, our best times can still lie ahead. With Stephen Covey's signature wisdom and warmth, this delightfully hopeful book shows how life can truly keep getting better and better' 

  'It's such a temptation to believe that we have done our best work. That we have peaked. That we are in decline. That our glory days are behind us. So, this book from Stephen Covey and Cynthia Covey Haller is a breath of fresh air. It inverts the situation entirely; and invites us to believe that our greatest contribution is always ahead of us. Indeed, this book being published at all, 10 years after Stephen's passing, illustrates the very premise of the book. Cynthia has captured the spirit of her father's work so faithfully and added her essential voice too. Reading this has been a huge blessing to me, and it will be to you as well. You'll never think of your life the same way again' 

  'Cynthia Covey Haller builds on the work of the late, great Stephen Covey in this inspirational book. Live Life in Crescendo will give everyone who reads it inspiration and hope to live a life that is productive and meaningful, from beginning to end'
