Yes I Can! Lessons Learned from a Life Less Ordinary: Black-and-white Photos Paperback – October 19, 2022

This book was an absolute pleasure to read. I actually first saw Dr. Paul when he gave a talk at my high school in the early 2000s. I later met him again when I was in college (we both attended Rutgers) where I remembered him, and we became friends. Thus, as soon as I learned about this book, I knew I had to read it as soon as I could.Not only was it incredibly inspirational to hear his stories of perseverance and words of wisdom, but it was so neat to learn we had a lot more in common than I had realized. It turns out we not only went to the same pre-school and temple, but he used to work where I do now, and is friends with one of my colleagues! Small world.Dr. Paul has a knack for bringing people together and being a positive force in peoples’ lives. I am so glad to know him and am proud that he decided to write this book to reach out to others and share his many stories and knowledge. I highly recommend this book—he is proof that nothing is impossible, especially if you have the right attitude.

When I received this book and started reading it, I could not put it down. The way Dr. Paul was able to overcome all the obstacles in his life wth such a positive attitude was truly heartwarming an inspirational. I highly recommend reading this book.

I could easily use 10,000 words to review "Yes, I Can!", but I'll keep this honest, direct and heartfelt so one will know all you need to know. Wait! Most of the last sentence could be the review! Dr. Paul has exquisitely examined his own exemplary life so well lived and filled this gem with real-world advice we all can and should use whenever we face any kind of challenge. "Real-world" is the operative phrase. Very few of us can come close to facing all the obstacles that Dr. Paul has-none of his own making.My family and I are blessed to call Dr. Paul a dear friend for a long time, starting with so many wonderful hours on the Jersey shore beach, then extending it. In particular, the first time we saw him captivate a group of somewhat jaded teenagers at his presentation at a NJ State Police training facility where immediately Dr. Paul owned his audience and gave them a lifetime's worth of inspiration and priceless advice. Not only were we wowed then, but more so well after the event when he shared the notes and email of praise and gratitude from this group.That was twenty years ago and nothing has changed other than his tireless work to expand his reach which he has done with this book, among other things. Dr. Paul walks his talk. Walking has never been easy but each step he takes serves as proof positive that he has found a way to move forward with a determination that we all can learn from. Talking comes very easily to him. So does writing, thankfully, for anyone who needs to march determinedly out of the dark.I worked with Tony Robbins for many years and have seen firsthand what a true inspirational force can do. I have been with Dr. Paul at many events and will say with no compunction that Dr. Paul matches Tony's ability to ignite that tiny spark in one's mind and soul which launches a new awareness leads to irreversible progress and happiness.Read this book if you need to prove to yourself what you can do no matter the odds. You'll never be the same.

Yes, I can! is a book that embodies some of the most powerful life lessons delivered by Dr. Paul, who has overcome Cerebral Palsy and hearing loss. Paul’s personality shines throughout this book as we see his perpetual sense of humor and his deep love for family, cars, food, music, and all of humanity. His contagious smile and attitude will have you yearning to get to the next page to read about another motivational story from his past.This book is truly unique as you read about the power of positivity and his ability to face challenges head on while never allowing adversity to get the best of him. Each chapter has an in-depth recollection of early life experiences that shaped who he is today and key reminders on how we can choose to see and live life using the same potentially untapped methods he has used.I highly recommend this book not only to those who are faced with obstacles that may appear too large to overcome, but anyone who may need a reminder that anything is possible by choosing to live by those 3 little words: Yes, I can! Dr. Paul shares a lifetime of experiences that were framed by his upbringing and underpinned by his never-ending positivity and resilience. A great read for all ages!
