Lessons From Everest is 'Into Thin Air' meets 'The Secret' with a sprinkle of humor. After a devastating failed attempt to climb Mt.Everest and a brief period of mourning, I became focused on learning the lessons that had been revealed to me while hiking alone in the Khumbu Valley of Nepal. After testing those lessons, to within an inch of my life, I did achieve my goal of climbing the World's highest mountain . More important was the realization that the lessons were universal to people seeking to overcome difficulties in life or simply to edge a little closer to their human potential. This inspirational book with high-adventure memoir elements describes these seven lessons.
