Handshake: What the Great Do That Others Don't by Chris Sonksen. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781888741285.

When I was fifteen, I had the pleasure of meeting a man I greatly admired. His Handshake changed my life forever. That handshake, so many years ago, made me believe that greatness was possible for anyone who wanted it. It wasn t the handshake itself that left the impact; it was the quality of confidence with which it was given. This book examines the biographies and qualities of various highly successful people, and the choices that made them great. In each of their lives it was not primarily their talent but their choices that made all the difference. As with these great individuals, it is not our talent but our choices that lead to greatness.
