The Magnetic Cardinal

At some point in time in your life, someone said you were ugly, worthless, and that you were never going to amount to anything.

They said you'd be nothing more than a statistic. Somewhere down the line, somehow, you believed it.

More importantly, you forgot who you are, and as a result of losing yourself, the version of you that exists is likely a mere fraction of your true potential. The bad news is you can't change history, other folks' opinions, or perceptions. The good news is you're only an idea away from becoming a better version of yourself.

Taking control of your life sounds and feels overwhelming, but your journey begins with this book.

This book is about leadership, vulnerability, and resilience through the practices of nine principles. If they are applied, they will change your life. Very few people learn to lead themselves and even less desire to lead others, especially in the face of adversity.

Many of us view being vulnerable as a weakness when in fact it's centered around letting our guard down and trusting people to help us carry out the emotional burdens we've collected over the years. Talking about our problems can be either draining or empowering, depending on how we frame it to see the bigger picture, but talking through our problems helps us develop solutions.

Lastly, resilience, because the more we stretch our limits, the less likely we are to break amid chaos, turmoil, and adversity. Challenges are a part of life, and how we deal with them determines our trajectory, but it's only when we have a vision, a goal, or a dream that we are pulled in the direction to make better decisions.

That's what The Magnetic Cardinal is all about.
