The Superstar Roadmap isn't about changing who you are. It's about changing what you do! Hidden within each of us is a superstar waiting to come alive. Often we never find this superstar. We give up too easily because the world leads us to believe that superstars have special talents we lack. Dr. White's research into how over 60 ordinary people, like Steve Jobs, Jack Welsh, Warren Buffet, Lady Gaga, and many others, became superstars shows that we all have the potential to become superstars in what we love to do. We just need to know the way. The Superstar Roadmap shows you the way by providing you with a nine-step road map that will wake up the superstar in you.
