Synopsis

Have you ever woken up in the middle of the night and thought, “Where the hell is my life going?”

Patrick Mork, a former Google exec and serial tech marketer, hit that wall in 2017. After being fired twice in the span of 18 months at two different startups, he woke up one day terrified by the realization that what he had spent the past 20 years doing no longer excited him and that his passion for it was gone.

Divorced, nearly bankrupt and teetering on the edge of depression, his life and career were in ruins.

Fast forward 5 years. Patrick has become a successful entrepreneur, executive coach and motivational speaker and built a fast growing leadership development company based out of Santiago, Chile.

Step Back and Leap is an authentic and brutally honest series of stories that trace the author's life and challenges. From being bullied as a kid in Mexico, to flaming out in a startup destined for stardom in Silicon Valley. Each chapter recounts dramatic challenges Patrick faced and the 9 “keys” he used to overcome each challenge.

“What might be possible if you could live a life of purpose and meaning?”

Imagine the possibilities….

Step Back and LEAP: 9 Keys to Unlocking Your Life and Making Sht Happen* is an empowering and practical guide designed to help individuals take control of their lives and create lasting change. The author uses a bold, no-nonsense approach to break down the necessary steps for personal growth, emphasizing the importance of reflection and self-awareness in the process.

The "LEAP" framework, which stands for Life, Empowerment, Action, and Progress, serves as the backbone of the book. It offers a blueprint for transforming your mindset, overcoming obstacles, and taking decisive action toward achieving your goals. The book is filled with actionable advice, personal anecdotes, and exercises that encourage readers to step outside their comfort zone and push through fear and doubt.

One of the strengths of this book is its motivational tone. It doesn't sugarcoat the challenges involved but provides real strategies and insights that can lead to tangible results. The chapters are concise and direct, making it easy to digest the material and apply it in daily life.

While the book is undeniably motivating and packed with useful advice, some readers may find the tone a bit too brash or the concepts a bit too familiar if they’ve already encountered similar self-help literature. However, for anyone looking for a fresh perspective on taking control of their future, Step Back and LEAP provides a practical roadmap to success.

Overall, this book is ideal for anyone ready to break through their limiting beliefs and take actionable steps toward creating a fulfilling life.

Step Back and LEAP: 9 Keys to Unlocking Your Life and Making Sht Happen* is a no-holds-barred guide for anyone seeking to take their life to the next level. The author combines a candid, tough-love approach with practical exercises, making it easy for readers to apply the concepts in their everyday lives.

The nine keys outlined in the book cover a range of essential topics, from self-reflection and overcoming fear to setting boundaries and creating meaningful habits. The LEAP method (Life, Empowerment, Action, and Progress) serves as a structured yet flexible framework, helping individuals break free from procrastination and indecision.

What sets this book apart is its blend of motivational language and actionable tips. The author doesn’t just offer vague advice but provides tangible steps for making real progress, pushing readers to step outside their comfort zones, and take responsibility for their own growth. There’s a strong focus on mindset shifts, which is a crucial element in achieving lasting change.

The tone of the book is energetic and at times irreverent, which may not resonate with everyone, but it does make the book feel like a conversation with a friend who isn’t afraid to call you out when necessary. The no-nonsense approach can be incredibly motivating for those who need a push to take control of their life.

On the flip side, some of the ideas presented may feel repetitive or familiar to readers who are well-versed in personal development literature. However, the author’s unique spin on these concepts and the practical exercises help make this book stand out in a crowded genre.

In conclusion, Step Back and LEAP is an excellent resource for anyone looking for a straightforward and energetic approach to personal development. It’s packed with advice that’s both tough and practical, empowering readers to take control of their lives and make meaningful change. If you're ready to step up, take action, and finally make sh*t happen, this book offers a solid roadmap for success.
