Who are you? -- What do you want? -- What can you do? -- Where are you going?
Summary: When it comes to getting an MBA & building a career in business, most think of risk in terms of loans burdens, peer pressure, rankings & failed start-ups. Yet most MBAs at least start their studies as idealists. Mark Albion feels that students respond to a message that's very different from the one they're taught in the classroom.

This book is so interesting as it talks about one step further than money. In the book, the author conveys mainly two key messages: money is a significant tool to serve yourselves and people around you; you can create a better world besides money. As the name show, this book is full of inspiration, courage, and guide to the future career. In every beginning of chapter, the author starts a question to continually talk about his opinion. I found this really drawing my attention to keep reading on as he would always make a good guess of your confusion and provide the possible solutions to deal with it. I think this book is more applicable for MBA students since the author himself is a leader in a community of service-minded MBAs. And after reading over this book, I surprised figured out that I know myself more and was inspired by courage to go for a way more than money!
