Inspired Stories of Real People with Unconquerable Will to Thrive and Be Alive: Invincible: How to Embrace Failure and Achieve Transformational Success (Paperback)

INVINCIBLE Words are powerful. They can be used to edify or teardown. Words imprint, leaving their remnants on the recipient. The power of a word depends upon who utters it and its social context. The word INVINCIBLE has its origin rooted in Old French and Latin - invincibilis, from in - 'not' + vincibilis. Modern day thinkers, purport in Oxford living dictionaries to define the word to mean, "too powerful to be defeated or overcome" and this source provides the example of its use, as, "An invincible warrior." Invincibility does not mean a lack of hardship. Rather it is a definitive descriptor of the essence of a soul, who has had hardship and yet, not despite it, but because of these hardships has been refined, renewed and restored to... embrace failure to achieve transformational success. Invincibility demands action, as it posits that once the vessel has undergone this transformation then one becomes a new creation and is set on a course not necessarily of one's own making, but absolute and of divine origin. No matter your belief system, there are human universal emotions that resonate to elevate collective humanity, these include Gratitude, Faith and above all Love. But, these emotions without action have no meaning. Invincible was written by successful real people, who share their life experiences transparently, to not only connect with you at an emotional level but, to provide you with real life wisdom, true-and-tried strategies and solutions, so you too can rise and unleash your Warrior within. Each story may have points of commonality. Themes of life experiences that are shared. But the uniqueness of each of our Elite Author's story of invincibility is found in the essence of how their experience served to shape them then; and the divine being they are now. Elite Authors' authenticity and vulnerability is only out-matched by their zeal to not only succeed themselves, but to fund freedom for survivors, who are still in the grips of PAIN, and that need to hear their message of Hope. One of the greatest gifts of success is the ability of reciprocity. We were not created to live in isolation, as one. We are all part of a collective humanity and as such, when one soul is stifled or lost, we as a human race lose out on all that individual was intended to share with us. Elite Foundation's Scholars, the Elite Authors in this literary work share a vision to affect a better, more compassionate and empathetic tapestry of existence for the world and those that follow them. The words of Orison Swett Marden (Dr. Marden, author, founder of SUCCESS magazine, in 1897) serve as a reminder us of our Invincibility: There is no failure for the person who realizes their power, who never knows when they are beaten; there is no failure for the determined endeavor, the conquerable will. There is no failure for the person who gets up every time they fall, who rebounds like a rubber ball, who persists when everyone else gives up, who pushes on when everyone else turns back.
