There will come a time when you must decide to lead the life someone else has chosen for you...or the life you want. According to legend, when a young boy asked the great Renaissance artist Michelangelo why he was working so hard hitting the block of marble that would eventually become his greatest sculpture, "David," the artist replied, Young man, there is an angel inside this rock, and I am setting him free. In "The Angel Inside, " the renowned consultant and career coach Chris Widener uses Michelangelo's words to explore the hidden potential that exists within us all. In this unforgettable tale, Tom Cook, a disillusioned American businessman, has traveled to Italy looking for direction in his life. In Florence, the last city on his tour, Tom meets a mysterious old man who opens his eyes to the art and life of Michelangelo and reveals what the artist's work can teach him--and all of us--about the power of following your passion. Among the lessons that Tom learns over the course of the next day: The beauty is in the details. Your hand creates what your mind conceives. All great accomplishments start with a single swift action. No one begins by creating the Sistine Chapel.
