Global motivational speaker Joe Beckman returns in this legacy building nonfiction book for all ages. In five wit-packed chapters, readers learn how to make a difference, be a good mentor, and unlock the life they long to lead.
In a world that seems to move faster each day, how do we build a legacy that lasts?
We're bombarded with messages encouraging us to "Just Do It," and over-simplified reminders that everyone has the same 24 hours in a day. But when it comes to really making a difference, how can you find meaning and purpose in your everyday work? How can you support those around you as they fulfill their destiny?
Joe Beckman is an accomplished speaker who has connected with leaders—young and old—at every stage of legacy building. In his highly anticipated follow up to Just Look Up, Joe reflects on his own journey to share an important message: Our past doesn't define us, but it can help guide us to where we're truly meant to be.
A perfect book for high schoolers, young adults, and the people who lead them, Just Look Back powerfully demonstrates that . . .
- Past mistakes can inform future missions,
- Rest and reflection can fuel new innovations,
- A single interaction can limit or uplift a legacy in progress, and
- It's never too late to reroute your life's path.
As everyone else chases the next best thing, this motivational book grants permission to reflect on where you've already been—gleaning lessons from the people you've met, the person you've been, and the things that you left behind.
