075: Devon Harris | Motivating an Entire Country - The Story of The Jamaican Bobsled Team


Listen Later

The greatest gift Devon Harris, Leader of the Keep on Pushing Foundation, ever received was the belief that a positive attitude and a never say die philosophy would carry him farther than he could imagine. It’s with this attitude, that Devon became part of the original Jamaican Bobsled team that competed in 1988 and inspired the movie Cool Runnings! At the heart of Devon’s message are the lessons he has learned of the power of persistence over obstacles in order to live one's best life. His book, Keep on Pushing brings this message about how everyone can keep on pushing and working for their dreams every day of their professional as well as personal lives.
