Shawn’s desire to help others achieve success in life is deeply rooted in his approach to life, and his own success. Shawn’s message of making an impact through personal transformation inspired his latest book, The Secrets of the Ambitious Mind. This book challenges all people to activate their ambitious mind, cultivate change, and elevate their future. Often times the path to ones dream or life goal is not map out and presented to them. The Secret of The Ambitious Mind will serve as a powerful reminder that the only guarantee in life for your success is you. And so you must “ Make your mark, by creating your own path”.

In this increasingly cynical world, the word “ambitious” has become synonymous with greed, and a lust for fame or power. This misconception, whether adopted consciously or unconsciously, has trapped countless generations in mediocrity, keeping entire families and communities from ever thriving, cultivating their inherent potential, or changing the world (and themselves) for the better. This book breaks down ambition into its constituent parts, and teaches us how to take advantage of our own potential for change, moving beyond the limits we have always believed to be true, and stepping outside of mediocrity. We are designed to excel, and the obstacles and challenges we face in life are there to teach us and propel us forward. Without the rain that falls, a seed will never reach beyond its small protective shell to become something amazing, adding beauty or shelter or sustenance to the world. By harnessing our ambition, in its purest form, we can break out of those shells that hold us back, and finally grow into whatever it is we were always meant to become.
