Synergism for Lasting Success
Synergism For Lasting Success is the true life story of “Don Truly”, the Synergist, whose life was influenced by visitations and consultations of two modern day prophets. These prophecies changed his perspective on life, and led him to make a determined effort to accomplish the world changing goals revealed to him as his future. Although devoid of funds, and having lost all the credibility and trust of his friends and family, Don sought to develop the expertise and make new connections necessary to achieve his near impossible and world changing dreams. His perseverance and visions lead him to discover a single word formula for lasting success, SYNERGISM. In the process he discovers the factors necessary to achieve synergism, and gains a deeper understanding of religions and his role as an instigator of world enhancing ventures. The relationships developed with similarly ambitious associates are described in the book, which provides amazingly new insight and guidelines for success.
