About the Author
PROLOGUE
Once there was a bright young man who wanted it all. He had had his fair share of disappointments and setbacks during his seemingly uneventful thirty-one year life, but he still believed in miracles. He had worked like a dog most of his life but had very little to show for it. He had always believed
that hard work made people successful. Yet, many people whom he knew, making over one million dollars or more each year, didn't work anywhere nearly as hard as he.
It seemed that almost all his life he had been surrounded by people who had abandoned their visions in life or who had given up all together. Was his heart no longer in it too? Sometimes, he would wake up at four or five o'clock in the morning wondering how he would go on even another week. How was he going to feed his family through the remainder of the month? Hours would usually pass by as he struggled for answers and direction.
He had decided on numerous occasions to move away from his present job
and attempt to fulfill his own internal burning desires as a world renown author, speaker, and trainer. Was this ambition a bit unrealistic? Did he really have the talent and techniques to accomplish these things? Years ago, he would not have thought twice about what today seems so unsure. Something was holding him back. Had he lost his nerve? Had all his thoughts for a better life for himself and his family; the riches and rewards he had always so desperately sought, turned him into nothing more than a perpetual dreamer? Did his paralysis spring from the fact that he was saddled with debts or was it because he had simply grown older and through age given up on his own visions of the future? Everything in his life seemed to distract him from seizing the moment and facing up to the tasks that were obviously fundamentally important to him.
Then one afternoon on his way home from another grueling and disappointing day at the office, the young man reached over, turned off the radio and embraced himself in a few minutes of unspoiled, quiet thought. Several minutes slipped by before the young man awoke from his thoughts to the sound of a blaring horn and began once again to focus his attention on the ever increasing traffic now present all around him. He looked around, smiled, then glanced over his right shoulder to survey the five o’clock rush hour traffic and the people he was about to leave behind. Almost instinctively he put on his turn signal and began to push his way through four lanes of dense traffic in order to catch the next exit off the expressway. At the end of the exit ramp he crossed straight ahead over a four-lane road onto one of the side streets which led to where his mindful thoughts for the last few minutes were taking him. Locals simply call it "the Mountain.’’ We’ll call it the place where our story all began.
CHAPTER ONE
THE BEGINNING
His first visits to the mountain were when he was six or seven years old. His parents used to take him there to picnic, ride the scenic railroad train, and skylift. His mother loved it the most because she believed it was the best place on earth to get closer to God. He actually visited it more in later years as a teenager, climbing the mountain at the walk-up station, in order to watch the magnificent sunset that the mountain was always so famous for. Here he would sit, for hours under the stars and visualize for hours what he expected his life, his future, to be like. When he arrived on this particular day, there was still daylight left. The young man went to the trunk of his car and retrieved a flashlight and blanket as he had done so many times before, left his coat and tie on the backseat of the car, rolled up his sleeves and slowly began the long, tedious journey up the massive granite structure. The mountain itself stands some 825 feet above the surrounding area and measures almost a mile and a half in diameter. It is still claimed today to be the largest granite structure of its kind in the world. His journey to one of his favorite spots would take a little under 30 minutes, climbing straight up. Once reaching the last hundred feet, the young man would leave the comfort of the path to the right, seeking his most favorite of all viewing spots for himself. Here, there would be no one else, no noise (other than the sounds of nature.) The young man thought, as he filled his lungs with the cool September air and savoring all its pleasantness that this is the way it should be. His attitude was relaxed, his mind open and alert as he gazed out toward the brilliant fall sun fading slowly behind the facade of the city. Within minutes of his arrival, the sun had all but disappeared, leaving behind an orange glow of color which caressed the nightscape of city buildings now coming to life.
Almost 20 minutes went by, as he sat there without the having even a single conscious thought. He was completely engrossed in the moment. It was only upon the ruffling of birds setting down in a nearby tree that he came back to reality and began to ponder the reasons why he was there.
• • •
An hour went by, then two. Nothing made sense. The young man had come to the mountain for answers. Yet in all the time he had spent there, the only thing he found was that he had a greater abundance of questions. In total anger and disgust, the young man screamed into the night air for answers to his seemingly unending list of questions.
What is it?
he yelled, What gives one person the success, wealth, and happiness that others want? Tell me, please!
Still nothing, not even an inkling of an answer from above. The young man rose to his feet and stood there in silence. Tears filled his eyes while helplessness fell upon him. With his head hung low, he slowly walked from the spot where he had been sitting towards the edge of the mountain and stood there motionlessly looking down in quiet desperation at the sharp, jagged rock cliffs below.
You won't find the answers there,
a calm, reassuring voice said. The young man was so stunned by the break in silence that he stumbled and almost fell as he turned in startled amazement in the direction from which the voice came. What are you doing here,
the young man asked. You almost killed me!
he exclaimed.
You almost killed yourself,
the voice replied as a figure of a tall, but slender-looking, middle-aged man emerged from out of the shadows. The young man peered deep into the shadows with both fear and concern as the figure emerged and started walking towards him. The young man’s heart started pounding, and he felt an overpowering urge to run as the mysterious individual came ever closer towards him. In the moonlight, he caught his first glimpse of the face behind the voice. As he studied the figure, the man was about fifty-five or so, ordinary looking in appearance, comfortably dressed in dark casual slacks and a greenish-blue crew-neck sweater. What caught the young man's attention the most was that his whole face seemed to be brightened by his effervescent moonlight smile.
Sorry I frightened you,
the stranger said as he extended his arm in the direction of the young man. When the young man's eyes met those of the stranger, an almost immediate sense of caring and sincere interest in him seemed to twinkle out in his direction. Completely unaware of who this man was, the younger man within seconds began to feel, for some unknown reason, comfortable and at ease with the individual whose hand was outstretched before him. As he took and grasped it, he felt as if this stranger were seemingly part family. The two walked together in silence, holding on to each other so they wouldn't lose their balance, back to the point where the young man had originally been sitting.
How long have you been here?
the young man asked.
A few hours,
the man replied. I was here before you arrived.
The younger man was startled by the answer. He had not noticed anyone when he arrived but, then again, he didn't remember looking either.
What is it you are looking for?
the stranger asked. Still confused by the events that had just taken place before him, the young man attempted to regain his wits and composure before giving thought to the question and attempting an answer.
I want what everybody desires,
the young man finally replied. Success, wealth, happiness.
Do you really think you can find those answers here?
the older man asked as he moved his hands and gestured toward the crystal clear view of the city. The young man had no response. Almost instinctively, he
