WHY I CREATED YOU ARE A CEO by Michael E. Parker

I would like to start with my own story, a young man who went to over six different elementary schools and came through a broken home. I'll never forget riding with my mom to a home for battered women and wondering if I could ever be successful. Somehow through it all I was able to rise above that situation and ended up moving through school, getting my master's degree, and was hired by Toyota where I was handpicked to go to Japan. As I was in Japan I couldn't help but feel there was something more that I needed to do. So I broke away from the corporate world and I became an entrepreneur. Through all of this I came up with a concept and started a company called You Are A CEO. The message is simple, you run the business of YOU. You have to be the CEO of yourself before you could ever be the CEO of your destiny.

When I realized that I'm responsible for how much passion I have and how much success I want to strive for I realized that it didn't matter where I came from and all the obstacles that were in front of me. What mattered was how much I wanted to change that situation. So I learned how to rise above insecurities, fears, and challenges by having something deep on the inside that said, I am making an executive decision to move myself forward and I'm going to create the success that I'm looking for.

You Are a CEO is a philosophy to help people achieve anything they want to achieve by making an executive decision for success. That's what I did. That's what I like helping others to do.
