‘In my bestselling book Triggers’, I raised this important question. Why don't we become the person we really want to be? In his book, ‘Tick Tick Dollar’, Qaier gives us the answer to this question and shares his proven philosophy to make that life a reality’. Marshall Goldsmith - World’s #1 Leadership Coach. #1 New York Times Bestselling Author of TRIGGERS’ Tick Tick Dollar philosophy is not my invention. It is my discovery. I discovered this philosophy when I was at the lowest point in my own life. My 24 years struggle to turn my life around brought me to a point where I was homeless, jobless, visionless, hopeless, resourceless, loveless, and almost lifeless. My annual income was less than 200$. I had a destructive self-image, stumpy self-confidence, and a poor concept about who I was and what I thought I could do. I had lost faith and was nearly about to give up. And then I embraced Tick Tick Dollar philosophy. Tick Tick Dollar approach was my companion, inspiration, and north star in all those frustrating, shattering, and devastating instants. The fact is that with no financial resources, no professional network, no background, and no confidence, God granted me all that which a few years ago existed only in my imagination. What made me do all of this that I could never have imagined doing even in my daydreams only a few short years ago? It was just a simple shift in my thinking, beliefs, and philosophy. I committed myself to stick to three decisions I made when my life was in a complete directionless mess: 1. Each day I will commit to following my purpose 2. I will use every waking moment to pursue my deepest passion 3. Every day, I will use the joint power of my purpose and passion for performing at the finest optimum levels.
