How to Bounce Back in Life So You Can Do More, Have More, and Be More

Jimmy Burgess has ridden the roller coaster of life. He was a millionaire at 35, and lost everything financially. He bounced back from bankruptcy quickly by starting a new company in an industry that he had no experience in. He had revenues in excess of $1 million dollars within the first year out of bankruptcy.

But, the biggest benefit of bouncing back wasn't that he bounced back financially. It took him losing everything money could buy in order to appreciate and have all the things that money couldn't buy. This experience led him to write the book What Just Happened? How to Bounce Back in Life So You Can Do More, Have More, and Be More. This has ironically turned his mess into his message.
