ADVANCE PRAISE FOR MOVING MOUNTAINS
"Forget 'how to' books on success and achievement. Messner shows that true success comes from winning on nature's terms through a clear understanding and personal conviction to the 'why' and 'what' that shape our dreams. Moving Mountains should be required reading for those committed to excellence and achievement." Sir Chris Bonington, Everest mountaineer, author, and lecturer
"Reinhold Messner is arguably the most gifted and visionary mountaineer of all time and one of the world's greatest athletes. He is also a highly respected professional. Living by his convictions, Messner has reached the pinnacle of success. He is extremely qualified to lend insight not only to those seeking to attain professional goals, but also to those seeking to live life as it should be livedto satisfy their own souls.
This book has something for everyone. In its pages are many vibrant messages from the man who has learned so many vital lessons of life and business. Messner drives himself hard to satisfy his personal goals and aspirations, but also to enjoy inner peace. This book will help you find the free spirit that lies within you both personally and professionally." Ed Viesturs, climber of 12 8,000-ers without bottled oxygen

"If you ever wondered what inspired the world's most successful mountaineer along his arduous journey into the Himalayan Peaks above 8,000 meters and the Earth's great desert and polar regions, and, more importantly, how that might apply to your life and career, don't miss this book! Commingled with Messner's often complex and abstract philosophy are concrete interpretations and suggestions at the conclusion of each chapter. Messner's achievements riveted the mountaineering world and changed everyone's thinking on climbing style. Yet what emerges from this book that is, ultimately, philanthropic and timeless, is the portrait of an exceptional and compassionate human being who has enjoyed not only great success but also survived profound tragedy. Pick this book up and discover Messner's commitment to his own unique code of ethics and how his ideas apply across the universe of human endeavor." Peter Athans, climber on 13 Everest expeditions, record for most Everest summits for a non-Sherpa
"Messner is one of an elite group of individuals who have raised the bar of human achievement. I admire his determination, perseverance, and mental toughness which are all indispensable yet rare qualities necessary to attain the goals he achieved. Moving Mountains is a must-read for those whose aspirations extend beyond their current realities." Karl Heinz Salzburger, President and CEO of The North Face
"By being progressive, even aggressive, in his climbing career, Messner has accomplished the impossible. Moving Mountains outlines a simple course to successin any field. This book will help you achieve your potential." Lou Tice, President of The Pacific Institute and author of Smart Talk
