"Daily and Monthly Inspirational Thoughts for a Year" is based on Paul William Johnson's lifetime of personal and professional experience. Professionally, he gained endless wisdom from his experiences as a professional engineer, stock and commodity trader, farmer, musician, Rennaissance musical instrument builder, entrepreneur, elected city councilman, corporate executive, and businessowner. His family, however, has taught him more than any career ever could. Marriage with his wonderful wife Linda, the fun they had raising five successful children, and bonding with their thirteen grandchildren have inspired him endlessly. This book was compiled from 30 years of notebook entries as Johnson learned to expand his own thinking and enjoy life more. He hopes his writing helps readers do the same.
