MAN IN THE ARENA NEVER SAY QUIT

Inspired by the words in the famous speech delivered in 1910 by President Theodore Roosevelt, who exhorted others to risk failure rather than shrink from life’s challenges, author David Michael Semas has spent a lifetime in building businesses from the ground up. David writes to edify his readers, who, he hopes, can glean a few useful lessons from his long list of successes as well as his notable failures, which has fueled his quest to live in the arena, where life plays out on a grand scale.

The story is part memoir, part inspirational self-help, which is why you won’t find anything like it at bookstores these days. Anytime we pick up a memoir or tell-all story by a billionaire like Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Warren Buffet and others, we already know how the story ends. This story, on the other hand, details the author’s share of ups and downs and more closely resembles the rollercoaster ride that most people experience when trying to pursue their dreams. Indeed, ‘Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass…It’s about learning to dance in the rain’ - Vivian Greene.
