Reviews

"My friend, Steve Harvey, has an amazing gift to inspire, encourage and motivate people toward their dreams. In his new book, Jump, he'll show you through his own experiences, how to discover your gifts, envision your dreams and take the steps to become all you were created to be. He's impacted my life, and I know Jump will impact yours." -- Joel Osteen, Pastor and New York Times Bestselling Author This is the principle that spectators could never see from the grandstand of playing it safe! When in fact, anyone who's ever done anything monumental in their lives knows, that sooner or later one has to stand on the brink of peril and promise. It is what one does on the precipice of opportunity that determines the outcome. Steve Harvey shares with us what makes some 'Jump' while others turn sadly away only to eulogize the opportunity and bemoan the circumstances that discouraged them from action. Steve Harvey has done the leaping right before our eyes. Now he is committed to sharing the principles and preparations that he and others used to override their fears and surge into their unique destiny! Your first JUMP is to read his book! It will make the next JUMP so much easier! -- Bishop T.D. Jakes, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author
