About Me:
 
Andy Andrews lived a relatively normal life until the age of nineteen, when both his parents died—his mother from cancer, his father in an automobile accident. I took a bad situation and made it much worse, Andrews says with a rueful smile, referring to choices he made during this tragic period of his life. Within a span of several years, the young man found himself literally homeless (before that was even a word he says), sleeping occasionally under a pier on the gulf coast or in someone's garage.

It was at that time when Andrews asked the question that would focus his search for what would ultimately affect millions of people. The question? Is life just a lottery ticket, or are there choices one can make to direct his future? To find the answer, he first went to the library. There, over time, he read more than two hundred biographies of great men and women. How did they become the people they were? he wondered. Were they simply born this way? Or were there decisions made at critical junctures in their lives that led to such success? The young Andrews finally determined that there were seven characteristics that each person had in common. What will happen, he mused, if I study these seven common denominators and harness them in my own life?

The rest is history. The Seven Decisions,as he calls them, were the engines used to carry Andrews' life in a different direction. And twenty-plus years later, these same Seven Decisions became the outline around which he built the story of The Traveler's Gift and the basis of his PBS Special.

Mr Andrews, I was first introduced to you when I found an audio cassette of a performance you did in the 70's at Ceasars Casino in Tahoe. It was so funny--I still will quote lines from it. (like the toilet brush and the redcoats/brown pants).

I'm really glad you told the story of Joshua Chamberlain. It's amazing how one person could so radically change the course of not only American History but also World History.

Keep up the *good* work.

Hi Andy,

Thanks for the invite.

I loved your book "The Traveler's Gift" so much
that I did a video about it on my channel.

Wishing YOU all the best!
