Almost 20 years ago—back in December 2006—Jack Canfield’s “The Success Principles” book completely transformed the course of my life.

At the time, I was lying drunk on a beach in Egypt, questioning what to do next with my life. This book had been traveling with me for nearly a year, but every time I opened it, the 440 pages in a foreign language felt unmanageable.

But on day 4 or 5 of that vacation—after days of overeating, drinking, and chain-smoking—I felt exhausted not just physically, but spiritually. I knew I wanted something else. Something different.

So I went back to my hotel room, grabbed the book, returned to the beach, and started reading. And over the next few days, I read the entire first edition cover to cover.

It was during that reading that I made a decision that changed everything: To become the first Russian-speaking motivational speaker—and to go on a journey no one else had dared before.

A few years later, I became the most successful speaker, trainer, and coach in the Russian-speaking world.

This book started it all.

Later, I studied directly with the author, Jack Canfield.

Ten years after that beach in Egypt, Jack released the 10-year anniversary edition—and included my story in the book. Now, 20 years later, the 20-year edition is out, and my story is still there.

If you haven’t read “The Success Principles” by Jack Canfield—do it. Read it not once, but multiple times. Let this knowledge become your second nature.

And when you do—there’s no way you won’t succeed.

I couldn’t recommend it more.

Grab your copy—and read my story too. 😉
