This is perfect!!! My key emplyees and I listened to this together on our way home from training. This is exactly the kind of message we all need to hear.

The Highest Calling is a fantastic read. I would recommend to anyone in any type of business, but especially any contracting business. I'm psyched to get moving ahead just as Troy did.
—Steven L. - 1/13/11
It was filled with so much excellent information, all in one place, that would take years to acquire. All this mixed with the message from Cy. "Take care of the ones you love; Be a good friend; Help others." It touches all the bases.

I don't suppose business colleges like this book very much, it could put them out of business, as well as advance students forward many years toward their success. GREAT BOOK!

As a Remodeling Contractor "The Highest Calling" felt like it was written for me personally. I have recently restructured my business and the timing of reading this book was perfect. I now have 8 pages of powerful notes and thoughts that would help any business owner... Awesome book Larry! Thank you...
—Mark M. - 11/17/10
I read the book at home, then re-read the book again with my blue book open and pen in hand.

I just finished the audiobook and was so excited to learn about how to think and operate a business in the context of great storytelling.

Your aunt loaned me the book and I let it sit for 3 months. I picked it up and devoured it in 2 days. It helped me clarify my thinking about my business and get me going on a more positive path. Thank you.

Larry has managed to capture the most important elements of success in business and in life, and put them into an enjoyable and moving book

I finished reading "The Highest Calling" – my favorite line, aside from reference to Hannan’s Hardware (how serendipitous is that!) – is the very last one...
—WM H - 4/15/10 [Read Full Comment]
The Highest Calling is a real page turner. I read at least 10 business books a year and this is without question on of the most readable, while at the same time excellent in offering insight for making positive changes and applying ideas to one's own business.
—Mike M. - 4/7/10
I am 80 years old, and I tell you this. If someone had given me The Highest Calling many years ago when I was in business, today I would be very, very, very wealthy.
—Robert T. - 3/30/10
The book made me think out of the box yet is the path to a new beginning. For those who hear and listen in life this is a must read.
—Scot B. - 3/3/10 [Read Full Comment]
Just finished this breath of fresh air! Just what the doctor ordered. I was reminded of so many important things that I had forgotten! I was treading water for so long and now I feel like I'm back in the race! This is the jolt you need every once in a while! THANK YOU LARRY!
—Chrissy A. - 2/24/10
This book is great and I can relate to it because my department is a business on it's own. Same goes for any departments within a business. In that sense, I can be a leader within my business(department).
—Evan I. - 2/10/10 [Read Full Comment]
Thanks so much for this book, Larry. I'm new to business ownership, two years, I hired a consulting firm and worked on these same issues. Reading it and seeing it though Troys eyes was a great refresher and was highly motivating. Thanks again.
—Steve T. - 2/6/10
This book should come with a journal AND a box of Kleenex. The storyline held my attention while the business information flowed out and into my journal. What an awesome way to "give" us the tools we need to succeed! Thank you!
—Judy G - 2/2/10
Any entrepreneur will love this book. The Highest Calling reveals a specific course of action that will improve your life and your business. The book has given me great ideas and a fresh perspective on running my company. And the lessons are integrated into a compelling story that is a real page turner!
—Duncan M. - 1/25/10
"The Highest Calling" was one of the best books I've ever read. There was not only great wisdom and motivation, but the book was a real page-turner! The story made it a fun and emotional read and I will be recommending it to everyone I know.
—David T - 1/19/10
Reading this book put the wind back in my sails and fire in my belly. Sometimes you need to be reminded that there is so much more to your business than being "owned" by it.
—Kevin K. - 1/5/10
Read The Highest Calling. I wish it had been around 20 years ago but am glad to see it now. It is dog-eared and worn already.
—Rixon S. - 1/4/10
Thank you for sending me 'The Highest Calling' on Tuesday. I read it yesterday - what a sensational book! I've read well over 500 business books and this is a stand alone.
—Robert R. - 1/4/10 [Read Full Comment]
I enjoyed reading "The Highest Calling." I read it in one weekend. I have read many business books, but this one is different because it is especially for small business. I was absolutely inspired!
—Dan T. - 1/2/10
I just finished your book and I have to say it was great! I'm considering it a call to action to fix things in my business that I know need work. Thank you.
—David B. - 1/2/10
It was assumed that I got the important information the first time, and believe me, I did. I was taking notes like the lead character.
—Bob P. - 1/2/10 [Read Full Comment]
From start to finish I simply could not put the book down. On occasion I would pause to brush the tears from eyes as memories of my own struggles were mingled with those in the book.
—Doug L - 12/30/09 [Read Full Comment]
I found The Highest Calling to be utterly fascinating and trust that the value of this book to me will only be measured as it unfolds in my own life. I am committed to getting started and never looking back.
—Doug N. - 12/29/09 [Read Full Comment]
Thank you for my gift of the Highest Calling. You have touched my inner core, laid bare and made me realize how much more there is to do and most importantly, given my hope that I can do it. Keep shining your light!
—Ed K. - 12/29/09
I haven't read a book in 15 years. I got to the end of this book in two days, and then I had to read it again - in two more days. I got it. I really got it. Thank you.
—Tom R. - 12/29/09
I am 7 chapters into the book. To say that I am loving it is an understatement!
