Stephen R. Covey spent his long and storied career inspiring millions of individuals to make their lives more effective, compassionate, and meaningful. Near the end of his life, Covey felt there was a final component to his work: How do you live your best life no matter your age? Live Life in Crescendo is Covey’s directive to live life in crescendo, meaning to continually grow in contribution, learning, and influence. In the same way that music builds on previous notes but leaves us anticipating the next note, a life builds on the past but unfolds in the future.

Traditionally, businesses have relied on a 'command and control' management style, focusing on rigid hierarchies and compliance from employees. Covey argues we must shift from a 'command and control' to a 'trust and inspire' leadership model.

It is based on the belief that employees are creative, collaborative, and full of potential; through trust, you can inspire them to do their best work.

"Die Familie ist das Fundament unserer Gesellschaft", schreibt Stephen R. Covey in seinem Vorwort zu diesem Buch. Doch allzu häufig werden heute familiäre Bedürfnisse zurückgestellt, weil anderes vermeintlich Priorität hat: der Job, die Schule, Freunde, Sport, soziale Medien, Hobbys etc. Die Liste ließe sich noch lange weiterführen. Und tatsächlich gibt es viele Dinge, die wir tun müssen und die Zeit beanspruchen. Doch letztlich haben wir es selbst in der Hand, welches Gewicht wir den Beziehungen zu den Menschen in unserem engsten Umkreis geben wollen.

In Point Man Ministries we have a patch that says, "not all wounds are visible". It is a sobering reminder of the internal damage often suffered by combat veterans and others with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I've had a story to tell from the moment I stepped back onto American soil in 1970 after serving in Vietnam for a year, but it took 50 years for that story to find the right words, and for those words to find their voice.

The king with everything will be challenged by the boy with nothing - and on the path where courage and selflessness meet, the boy with no name will inspire magic to return once more.

Nur durch äußere Erfolge lässt sich kein gelungenes Leben führen. Wahre Größe entsteht auf einem Fundament aus verinnerlichten Prinzipien. In diesem Hörbuch beschreibt Stephen R. Covey, wie es möglich ist, die Fixierung auf Erfolg, Anerkennung, Titel etc. hinter sich zu lassen und sich auf die wirklich wichtigen Dinge zu konzentrieren.
