“Where you’ve been has nothing to do with where you’re going and Bobby’s story is living proof.” former PGA Tour and US Amateur winner, Sam Randolph
“A fascinating book that casts new and needed light on what it takes to be successful in America today, offered by a man who learned the makings of success from the ground up. Bobby has created a masterwork of self-help, and done so in an easy to follow, easy to implement way. Readable and thorough, Dream Big, Win Big! is an essential work.” Geoff Campbell, author of The Cold War: The Home Front and The Persian Gulf War: Life of an American Soldier
“Everyone wants more than they could ask or imagine but this requires some sobering wisdom, the how to’s. Bobby is a good example of success outside the traditional box in that he draws from his personal life lessons gained from the reality of life. Dream Big Win Big will reaffirm why and how you too can experience a rewarding life no matter where you have or haven’t been.” Rey Martinez, Sr. Pastor Waves of Faith
“Bobby is walking, talking living proof that the American Dream is alive and well and that in America anyone, from any walk of life can make a success of themselves.” Greg Ricks, President Performing Ads Company

Dream Big, Win Big! Kennedy’s bold vision imbued NASA with a sense of purpose and a clearly defined goal. Instead of blindly chasing Soviet space firsts, NASA now had a specific endgame, and it methodically plotted out a course to achieve Kennedy’s goal. In July 1969, Neil Armstrong became the first man to walk on the moon -- just eight years after Kennedy’s challenge to the nation.
“Committing your goals to paper increases the likelihood of your achieving them by onethousand percent!” Brian Tracy
As a postscript, it is worth noting that the troubled Vanguard launch was hardly a template for the future. Long after Sputnik and Explorer fell to Earth, the Vanguard remains in space today. It made unquestioned contributions to science with the data it sent back to Earth, and now is setting longevity records that may never be rivaled. Vanguard is expected to stay in orbit another one to two thousand years, and already is the oldest man-made object in space. The Vanguard story is unquestionably one of the values of persistence, perseverance and faith -- all ingredients of dreaming big. % g*,,*=$4% "8% 3"7+'*4% -('% =+*(6&,1% #&1% -.*,% .*% 3"66&<*=%/.*%,(/&",%/"%2(,=&,1%",%/.*%6"",:%;.(/%6(=*%/.*% =+*(6%'733*''872%-('%/.(/%&/%&,327=*=%(%32*(+2$%=*0,*=%1"(2: %

“Trust in the Lord with all of your heart and lean not on your own understanding. Acknowledge Him in all you do and He will make your paths straight.” Proverbs 3: 5-6 “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!” 2 Corinthians 5:17 “I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, “Move from here to there” and it will move.” Matthew 17:20 "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not selfseeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails." 1 Corinthians 13:4

My Favorite Quotes >,=%2('/%#7/%,"/%2*('/4%",*%"8%6$%(22`/&6*%8(5"+&/*%(='j Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They invent. They imagine. They heal. They explore. They create. They inspire. They push the human race forward. Maybe they have to be crazy. How else can you stare at an empty canvas and see a work of art? Or sit in silence and hear a song that’s never been written? Or gaze at a red planet and see a laboratory on wheels? We make tools for these kinds of people. While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do. Apple Computer Advertisement
