The life of the best-selling door-to-door salesman in Watkins Corporation history serves as the basis for these lessons about overcoming obstacles, in business and beyond. Bill Porter, stricken with cerebral palsy, overcame the pain and difficulty of the disease and achieved minor fame for his accomplishments in his native Portland, Oregon. This book served as the basis for a recent biopic about Porter starring William H. Macy, who provides the book`s foreword.
