re-engineering specialist Mark Fowler and refined with human

Tools fit easily into every kind of conversation, from the

peace and a better world, well, the Tools can help there, too.
You'll find that the S.H.A.R.E. Tools blend naturally into your own
speaking style, there are no scripts or complicated rules to learn,
you don't have to use them perfectly to get positive results, and
you'll quickly get better at using them. So, start today to develop
a Language of Success that will advance your goals, encourage
collaboration, increase the momentum of your business, and energize
your career and your life. With the S.H.A.R.E. Tools, success is

Gary H. Fowler is a Vietnam veteran. He has worked on most of the
United States Navy's aircraft carriers, and for years he worked in
direct service to several Presidents of the United States. At the
time of this publication he works as a scientific photographer. He
is a loved and dedicated father, son, brother, and friend, and
perhaps most importantly, he is a dedicated Born Again Christian.
Gary's beloved mother asked him to write a book detailing his life
experiences. This is such a book. He writes not only about the
above mentioned events, but many others as well. In all cases he
tells the truth of his life as he remembers it, even when some of
it involves "the good, the bad, and the ugly" that may be more than
his mother cared to know.
A Walk Through Time is a book of life stories dating back to 18

well. It will make you laugh and cry, and you will recognize
yourself in its pages. It is proof that there are no "ordinary"
people and that we each have unique and important stories to tell.
A Walk Through Time, the extraordinary life adventures of an
ordinary man. As you read, you'll recognize yourself again and
again, and fantasize about your own precious memoirs.
