From the Publisher:

Why on earth would anyone want to kiss a frog? In the classic fairy tale, the prize on the other side of those amphibian lips is a handsome prince. Success in today's world comes in a variety of forms -- few of which include royalty. But sometimes you have to do something as foreign to your nature as kissing a frog if you want to realize your true possibilities. This book could be one of the most valuable self-help books you will ever read and you will have fun doing it. You really can follow your fondest dreams -- just pucker up!

From the Author:

It's funny how the simple, imaginary line you draw around yourself - and your zone - defines in your mind what you can and cannot do. The goal of this book is to help you tear down those boundaries and discover who you are and how well you can survive outside of your comfort zone, where growth, success, happiness and even fun are found. Why do I keep leaving my comfort zone? When I think of all the amazing opportunities that I had never dreamed of - I'm fearful to not step out of my comfort zone, fearful that I might miss out on another adventure. What if?
