The Success Paradox is the improbable story of a life and business transformed, told in a warmly authentic style that says: "I hit rock bottom, I surrendered, I began doing the opposite of what I'd been doing before, miracles happened, and here's what you can learn from my journey."

With riveting personal details that illuminate his discoveries, Gary details how he defied the odds - not just to survive but to thrive - by implementing a series of paradoxical strategies, fundamentally opposite to anything he'd ever done before. The result is an inspiring book about what happened to him and a blueprint for readers to experience how to surrender and win in business and life.

Two months after his father's funeral the bank called all their loans, demanding $30M in 30 days. So began Gary's roller coaster ride into workaholism, alcoholism, near bankruptcy, and family strife, culminating in a doctor's grim diagnosis: "You have less than a month to live."But Gary turned everything around. Today he is sober, healthy, happy, his family is reunited, and his company, Palmetto Infusion Inc., is valued at $400M. How he did it reveals three astounding secrets that turn best business practices upside down.
