While covering the National Association of Realtors, Commercial Division National Conference in Anaheim, CA I ran into Jack Canfield. Last place I thought I would get an interview with Jack.

Jack was invited to speak to thousands of realtors about success principles and especially about not allowing the economy and current state of the industry, to be an excuse to fail.

Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen cocreated The Chicken Soup for the soul series®. Jack now has over 40 New York Times Bestsellers. An internationally renowned corporate trainer, keynote speaker, and popular radio and TV talk show guest, he lives in Santa Barbara, California.

Jack I know you were running late so I really appreciate the gracious time you gave me.- JW

Have you ever asked yourself why you are on planet Earth? And what the ultimate purpose for your life might be? Well, Jack Canfield asked himself this very question and came up with a surprising answer—part of which included a vision revealing that he is part of a “Golden Motorcycle Gang”—a gang whose intent is to have fun, but also to make significant contributions to the well-being of humanity.

During a joyful dinner many years ago in Santa Barbara, California, Jack told his friend William Gladstoneabout the Gang. Upon hearing this account, William had an epiphany that Jack’s story held a powerful underlying truth not only explaining Jack’s true purpose, but William’s as well.

For more than ten years, William encouraged Jack to write a book based on the story of the Gang, so they have now collaborated on this work to show you its relevance to this critical moment in the history of human civilization . . . and also to you, personally. As you read, you will be introduced to some of the extraordinary members of the Golden Motorcycle Gang, including visionary thinkers such as Barbara Marx Hubbard, the originator of the concept of Conscious Evolution.
