ORLANDO, FLORIDA, UNITED STATES, August 29, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Former Congressman Ric Keller2 admits that chasing after the family of bears that scampered across his front lawn wasn’t the brightest decision. He had taken an educated risk to prolong his view of something breathtaking, and after the experience, it occurred to him that, metaphorically, “chasing the bears” is exactly what more people needed to do.
“Most people are content to stay inside, play it safe and look out their windows as life passes them by,” Keller said. “Eventually, the clock runs out. On the other hand, a few people take a risk and chase their dreams. They ‘chase the bears.’”
In his new book, Chase the Bears: Little Things to Achieve Big Dreams1, Keller shares tips and techniques to help readers turn their aspirations and thoughts into reality — no matter where they start in life.
“Chase the Bears is about becoming the best version of yourself by using your gifts and taking chances that are aligned with your purpose,” Keller added.
The book is divided into two sections: Connecting Your Gifts to Your Goals and Connecting with People. In Part One, Keller starts with the importance of discovering your gifts, trusting your intuition and setting specific goals that are aligned with your purpose. Readers learn how to take actions to move toward their dreams by taking educated risks and making persistent efforts to achieve each baby-step goal.
Part Two of the book is focused on connecting with people and cultivating authentic long-term relationships. Keller shows readers how to network the right way. He also explains why leading with boldness, civility, humility and a little humor will make them leaders worth following.
Woven with fascinating anecdotes about others who have made their dreams come true, Chase the Bears aims to inspire readers to trust their instincts, use their gifts and never stop pursuing their dreams.
