1) Paperback Book The Power of Passion by Inner Everests. Jamie and Alan found out more about themselves on that mountian then they ever would have imagined. Some of it was bad, but most of it seemed to be positive. They learned that it´s not necessarily the summit that makes you succeed but the path you take to get there. It had me almost in tears at times and I was surprised that it had the power and appeal to do that. If you stories of hope then this is for you.¤ 2) Paperback Book The Power of Passion by Inner Everests. Simultaneously, "The Power of Passion: Achieve Your Own Everest" is both entertaining and self-developmental. Much like a Steinbeck novel that fully captures our attention, when I read Hobson and Clarke´s reflections of their Everest adventure I felt more like I was there with them at their cold high altitude camps than here as a reader in the comfortable warmth of my cozy den. On the other hand, and at a deeper level, as their subtitle "Achieve Your Own Everest" implies, Hobson and Clarke are writing about every human´s pursuit of their deepest (tallest) dream. As their title implies, "The Power of Passion" is necessary to fuel our journeys toward accomplishing our dreams. While all the current business achievement hype acknowledges our need for preparation, relationship skills, and execution, Hobson and Clarke found their biggest and most enduing obstacle in their differences of values. Additionally, their underlying struggle, "were they leaders or were they climbers" is an interesting metaphor for a common phenomenon that we see in today´s controversial business and politics.
While I was tempted to read "The Power of Passion: Achieve Your Own Everest" in a single setting, I found great value in reflecting on each chapter´s situations...and asking myself, "how were their situations in their pursuit of summiting Mount Everest similar to the struggles that each of us experiences in our own everyday lives." Interestingly, Hobson and Clarke´s journeys and course corrections are applicable models for achieving our own interpersonal and professional goals. I highly recommend this reading for professionals searching their way up the Mount Everest´s in their careers.
¤ 3) Paperback Book The Power of Passion by Inner Everests. Sorry, I never heard Hobson or Clarke speak, but have read their book which is OUTSTANDING! Although it´s supposed to be about Mountain climbing, it´s about reaching your own Everest in life and winning.I would love to hear these two speak in person. In the meantime I will enjoy re-reading this book to conquer my own Everest.Great book guys. Possibly the mst under-rated self help/motivational bookout there.¤ 4) Paperback Book The Power of Passion by Inner Everests. Ditto on what Rockford Illinois said: I heard Jamie Clarke speak and found him to be quite fascinating and was inspired to get and read his book, "The Power of Passion". The book was very good but not near as good as hearing Mr. Clarke speak in person. If you ever have a chance to hear him speak, don´t miss it. If not that, read his book. It´s more than about climbing a mountain, it´s about striving to do our best, to try our hardest in what ever we do every day. Everyone has a "mountain". We each need to face the challenge and strive to do our best to conquer it. ********** I bought multiple copies of this book to hand out to friends! All of my friends now own a copy, so I want to share this with all of my Amazonian friends! Enjoy!!!¤ 5) Paperback Book The Power of Passion by Inner Everests.

Everest adventurers and speakers Alan Hobson & Jamie Clarke believe life´s "Everyday Everests" are harder to surmount than Mount Everest itself because they are longer-term. No one takes our picture or congratulates us when we get to the summit because there is no summit. The everyday mountains we climb keep getting higher and harder. In this book, Alan and Jamie share the true story of their struggle to climb Everest. It is far more than a mountaineering tale, it´s a real-life story - a story of hopes and dreams, of tragedy and tenacity to which everyone can relate. Mostly, it´s a story about triumph - a triumph of the human spirit. It will help you climb your own Everests - whatever mountains you are climbing in your own life.¤ Page Updated: Robert N.
