I just couldn't put it down Nancy Christofferson, Marketing ManagerJim Akers does an extraordinary job in finding an appropriate way to influence and help his audience. I say appropriate because I am usually a bit wary of motivational texts and speeches. I often feel like they lack real substance and lasting inspiration. Rather than giving the reader a short-lived sense of purpose or excitement, Tape Breakers offers real wisdom. The principles and advice in the book prompt readers to evaluate their lives regardless of where they are in their own races. Jim leads readers to a place of understanding and clarity, empowering them to lead impactful lives.-Ben Reidy, Student, University of WashingtonTape Breakers is one of the most compelling and impactful (not to steal a phrase from you) reads I have enjoyed in recent times. Jim's ability to tell and send a message is natural. Life as you say is a journey of races-some more difficult than others. A must-read.-Bob Milner, Adjunct Professor, UTSA.…
