#1 National Bestseller! In the bestselling tradition of Brene Brown's
Daring Greatly and Nick Vujicic's Life Without Limits comes a
rousing 7-step plan for living a life on fire, filled with hope and
possibility--from a man who survived a near-fatal fire at the age of
nine and now runs a successful business inspiring people all around the
world.
When John O'Leary was nine years old, he was almost killed in a
devastating house fire. With burns covering his entire body, O'Leary
mustered an almost unimaginable amount of inner strength just to survive
the ordeal. The insights he gained through this experience and the
heroes who stepped into his life to help him through the journey--his
family, the medical staff, and total strangers--changed his life. Now he
is committed to living life to the fullest and inspiring others to do
the same.
An incredible and emotionally honest account of triumph over tragedy,
On Fire contains O'Leary's reflections on being that little boy, the
life-giving choices he made, and the resulting lessons he learned.
O'Leary shares that without the right people providing the right
guidance, at the right time, he never would have made it through those
five months in the hospital, let alone the years that followed as he
struggled to regain mobility, embrace his story, and ignite clarity of
his life's purpose.
On Fire encourages us to choose our path and transform our lives from
mundane to extraordinary. Once we stop thinking solely on the big
moments in our lives, we can begin to focus on those smaller
opportunities that tend to pass us by. These are the events--the
inflection points in our lives--that can determine how we feel about
life now, where we are headed in the future, and how many lives we can
impact along the way. We can't always choose the path we walk, but we
can choose how we walk it. Empowering, inspiring, and heartfelt,
O'Leary's strength and incredible spirit shine through on every page.
