Motivational speaker John Maxwell's enthusiasm and encouragement make you want to be a better friend and to give this colorful book to one. On December 18, 1999, I suffered a serious heart attack. At the time, I thought I wasn't going to make it. My doctors later told me that if I'd experienced the attack four years ago, it would have killed me because before my attack, they didn't have the technology that saved my life. I look back on that day now, and I thank God for many things. First I thank Him for life. And I am grateful that I didn't suffer any permanent heart damage. But I also appreciate the circumstances surrounding my heart attack. You see, it happened during the Christmas party for my company, The INJOY group. And because of that, my wife, children, and closest friends were all there. In what I expected were the last moments of my life, I was with the people who mattered most to me. I was able to tell them how much I love them. You see, every now and then I think we need to be reminded of the treasures we have around us. That's why my friend Dan Reiland, who was one of the people with me that night, and I wrote this book. We want to help you recognize the treasures you have in your life-and be able to do it without the heart attack! Read this book and thank God for the friends He's given you. And if you received this book as a gift, know that your friend appreciates you as the treasure you are.
